Summary

Nothing is going well in the SOS Détresse Amitié premises on Christmas Eve when Pierre and Thérèse, the two volunteers, receive a visit from characters, each more bizarre than the last. Between the Bulgarian neighbor determined to have his disgusting recipes tasted, the transvestite in the midst of an existential crisis, the dysfunctional, shady couple, and the repeated calls from an obsessed person, the magic of Christmas shatters into a thousand pieces, interspersed with disillusionment and comedy overlap.
