A Smile Doesn't Lie

Wisi is in a tight spot. He turns up in Bordeaux hoping to find a job and crosses paths with Marina, a big-hearted aid worker. To stay at her home, he pretends to be an undocumented and wins her sympathy. One evening, he meets Jérôme, who has also ended up on the streets following his mother’s death. Despite Jérôme’s racist remarks and his strange phobia of physical exertion, Wisi agrees to hide him out at Marina’s for one night. But sensing a good deal, Jérôme is determined to stick around. Especially since he’s discovered Wisi’s ploy to win Marina over.
