Synopsis
Max hates Christmas. He's hated it ever since he arrived in Paris as a lonely, eighteen-year-old immigrant and, as he reminds us often, nobody likes to be lonely. So it seems apt that Helene, Max's wife, should leave him just a few days before the detested holiday. Helene's departure pitches Max into a downward spiral of confusion and self-pity as he tries to navigate his way through the ensuing feelings of fear, anger and guilt. There are twists though, as Max is far from innocent: The distance between him and his wife is the result of Max's obsession with his mistress Keba, a beautiful jazz singer and his devotion to the clothing company that he founded with his best friend Paco. When Paco sleeps with Keba, Max's self-obsessed world shifts dangerously once more.
