Summary: Pierre, a professional dancer, suffers from a serious heart disease. While he is waiting for a transplant which may (or may not) save his life, he has nothing better to do than look at the people around him, from the balcony of his Paris apartment. When Elise, his sister with three kids and no husband, moves in to his place to care for him, Pierre does not change his new habits. And instead of dancing himself, it is Paris and the Parisians who dance before his eyes. (imdb)
an enjoyable yet loosely knit series of stories, but it does more to shove in your face that the parisians have spectacular -yet in a casual way- lives where people hook up randomly, older professors get with their stunning students and you can look handsome as the devil even while you're dying of heart disease. And there's the fact that Juliette Binoche just doesn't get old. heart warming in general, but nothing classic.
Klapisch tells the story of different people, from the same city. Maybe the most ambivalent city in the world; Beautiful and unique on one hand, unpersonal and harsh on the other. The narrative style is reminiscent of Kurt Rohmer, the characters are interesting and it´s great to immerse in their lives.
Multiple storylines encircle many facets of the French capital. The city looks splendid; the not very compelling characters (the brink-of-death Romain Duris excepted) keep getting in the way. Several liberating bits of dance, strictly gratuitous.
