“HIS PARADISE BECAME A MERRY HELL!”

ComedyCrimeRomance

Thief Gaston Monescu and pickpocket Lily are partners in crime and love. Working for perfume company executive Mariette Colet, the two crooks decide to combine their criminal talents to rob their employer. Under the alias of Monsieur Laval, Gaston uses his position as Mariette's personal secretary to become closer to her. However, he takes things too far when he actually falls in love with Mariette, and has to choose between her and Lily.

VIBE

A dazzling, champagne-fueled romp through high society's underbelly. Expect sharp wit, stolen glances, and a deliciously complicated love quadrangle. It's a pre-code charmer that’s both playful and surprisingly biting.
