Film Synopsis

Malo and Stéphane are two college boys who are getting sick and tired of being on the receiving end of their fellow students' pranks and insults.  They want only to make themselves popular, and the arrival of some German exchange students may be just the ticket they need.  It should also provide Malo's over-attentive parents with something else to worry themselves with so that he can escape their ever-watchful gaze and start enjoying himself a bit more.  Stéphane gets lucky - the student he ends up having to board is a trendy guy of exactly the kind he had been hoping for.  Malo, however, isn't so fortunate.  He ends up with Sasha.  It's not enough that Sasha is a girl - she is also a Goth.  Just when he thought life couldn't get any more unbearable Malo is proved wrong...
