Summary
For Sonia Mousse, a hard-pressed mother of four in a high rise
apartment in a poor area of Paris, life is a constant struggle.
Her dream is to buy the laundrette where she works, and she has scraped
together enough money to make this a reality – and then disaster
strikes. On the day of her daughter’s wedding, she learns
that her good-for-nothing husband has gambled away all of the money
they had put aside for the reception. As always, the only person
to whom Sonia can turn to sort out this mess is herself...
