About

How choosing a name for your firstborn can turn into drama at a family dinner… (comedy)A comedy by Alexandre de la Patelière and Mathieu Delaporte



Vincent is overjoyed to be having a child for the first time. As the duate date approaches, he and his partner Anna have chosen a name. Invited to dinner at the home of his sister Elsabeth and brother-in-law Pierre, he runs into Claude, a childhood friend.

Vincent has a habit of telling jokes in questionable taste. One of them will lead to some brutal and very unexpected revelations. In short, a family affair.

Directed and original soundtrack created by Stéphane Raynaud de Fitte, director of ATA, the Embassy of France Theatre company
