Trailer
Paulette feels guilty after unjustly punishing her daughter Linda and would do anything to make it up to her. Linda immediately asks for a meal of chicken with peppers, which reminds her of the dish her father used to make. But with a general strike closing stores all across town and pushing people into the streets, this innocent request quickly leads to an outrageous series of events that spirals out of control, as Paulette does everything she can to keep her promise and find a chicken for Linda.
The Albertine Cinematheque is cosponsored by the Department of Romance Studies, and the Center for Middle East and Islamic Studies and is made possible with the support of the FACE Foundation Supporting French-American Cultural Exchange in Education and the Arts, the Centre National du Cinéma et de l’Image Animée (CNC), and the Fonds Culturel Franco-Américain (FCFA).
