Overview

Parisian actor Yvonne dreams of musical theatre stardom but grim reality forces her to move back in with her mother, above the family’s Vietnamese restaurant. Over simmering pans, steaming vegetables, stuffed rolls (and musical sequences), family tensions soften and cross-generational dreams are stirred.

Stéphane Ly-Cuong's bold debut infuses a story about second-generation tension and cross-cultural identities with kaleidoscopic musical sequences played out in Paris.
