Certain religious rituals are too weird for persons alien to them. Such is the case of this story in which an infant is born. The parents being Jewish must have the baby boy circumcised, something akin to perhaps being baptized, in another religion. Jonas, an eager young musician, must do the deed. For that purpose, he wraps the part that has been cut from the baby's penis to be buried. This involves an all night adventure through Parisian streets at a speed of lightning because the rite is to be completed before midnight.
Dante Desarthe directed this comedy is not the disaster some of the comments submitted to this forum make out to be. We must confess our sole interest in the film was the fact that Emmanuelle Devos, one of France's most amazing actresses had a part in the movie. Alas, she has only a small role. Clement Sibony and Rona Hartner try to liven up things.
