Synopsis

1936, Paris. The closure of the music hall Le Chansonia drives its director, Pigoil, to drink. Not only has he lost his job but his wife has walked out on him, taking away their son. When two friends, Milou and Jacky, offer Pigoil the chance to reopen the music hall, he jumps at the opportunity. The hall’s owner, Galapiat, a fascist sympathiser, gives them a few months to make a success of the venture. An attractive young singer, Douce, is hired to draw the crowds, but she merely drives a wedge between Milou and Galapiat, who both fall madly in love with her...
