Half-sisters trailer

Take a look at this light comedy about blended families and forced cohabitation between strangers.

Synopsis: Lauren, a ravishing 29-year-old it-girl, is trying to break into the fashion world by scouring Parisian parties. Olivia, 28 and a touch psychorigid, has two obsessions: saving her parents' confectionery business, and finding herself the perfect husband. At 26, Salma, a feisty young history teacher, still lives with her mother in the suburbs. Their paths have no reason to cross... until the day when, on the death of their biological father, whom they never knew, they inherit a splendid Parisian apartment together. For these three sisters, who have nothing in common, living together is going to be explosive, to say the least...

A film for lovers of comedies of manners and contrasting characters

Demi-sœurs could appeal to viewers fond of French comedies centered on family ties and absurd situations, in the tradition of Qu'est-ce qu'on a fait au Bon Dieu? or Le Grand Partage. The dynamic between three opposing personalities serves as the main comic spring, with moments of tenderness and confrontation punctuating the narrative.
