Slice of Life
Directed by Patrick Timsit
Produced by Canal+, Les Films Alain Sarde
A darkly comedic drama about two estranged brothers forced into reconciliation by mortality and love, balancing tension with playful chaos.
Pierre has four months left to live if he does not find a new liver. His only hope is a transplant from his brother, Paul. But Pierre hates Paul and has refused to see him for the past ten years. They are different in every aspect : their way of life, their tastes. Nevertheless, Marie, Pierre's fiancee, is determined to reconcile the two men. A love-hate relationship develops, disrupting the trio, recomposing the couples and even going so far as to change their personalities. After a few too many drinks and a bit of fooling around, the settling of scores between the two brothers will come to a surprising end.
