Cinema on Wednesday

Max (Jean-Pierre Bacri) has been a successful wedding planner for many years, even if he sometimes despairs of his clients’ wishes. His private life, on the other hand, is a mess and his marriage is on the rocks. And now he has to organize an exquisite wedding this weekend in an old castle in the coun­try­side outside Paris, where every­thing that is wrong with his assign­ments seems to be coming together: His assistant Adèle (Eye Haidara) is drag­on­like to his colleagues, photog­ra­pher Guy (Jean-Paul Rouve) has very idio­syn­cratic ideas about how his art should be appre­ci­ated at the occasion, and the hired DJ Etienne (Gilles Lellouche) is in turn exactly the roaring party enter­tainer that the spoiled groom Pierre (Benjamin Lavernhe) doesn’t want. Everyone seems to have an unex­pected helper with them, hardly anyone has any expe­ri­ence and Max’s own Julien (Vincent Macaigne) recog­nizes an old love in the bride, which puts him out of action for the whole evening.
But that’s not all that can happen, there are also traffic jams, a spoiled main course or two people who can’t even hold a rope…
