Synopsis
1968. An old woman dies in a stately home in the French South West. Her son, Milou, who takes care of the property, summons the entire family for the funeral. And while the student revolts are breaking out in Paris, the family squabble over their inheritance and settle their scores. A juicy multi-character film which is not lacking in a certain causticity.
