An hour of peaceAdapted from Florian Zeller’s play by Fabrice Luchin, it tells the story of jazz lover Michel who has just discovered a rare album. He dreams of listening quietly in the living room, but the whole world seems to him: his wife untimely exposes him, his son suddenly appears, one of his friends knocks on the door, and his mother withdraws. He calls on his cell phone… Not to mention that day is the day of famous neighbors… Manipulator, liar, Michelle is ready to do anything for peace. Is a small hour of peace possible today?
with this Time of silence vaudeville optional Patrice Leconte and Florian Zeller, who rewrote his play for the cinema with a more realistic dimension, offers the audience a real moment of good humor.
