As in Baudelaire’s verse, “the form of a city changes more quickly, alas! than the human heart”, this film reveals the transformations affecting Paris’ 19th arrondissement and its ensuing gentrification. The director, a comic-burlesque figure evoking Jacques Tati, meets the protagonists or spectators in this situation, and meanders around what remains of bohemia in this joyful film.
