Mission Cinéma - City of Paris

This film is the story of a Parisian who is seriously ill and thinks he may be dying. His state of mind causes him to view everyone he meets in a different way. Envisaging death, he suddenly grasps the importance of life – other people’s lives, the life of the whole city.
Market traders, a baker, a social worker, a dancer, an architect, a homeless person, a university professor, a model, a Cameroonian illegal immigrant – these very different people are all thrown together in this city and in this film.
We may think these people are not particularly special, but for each of them their life is unique. We may think their problems are trivial, but from their point of view they are more important than anything in the world.
