[edit] Synopsis
Simon Eskanazy is a thirty-year-old Gay musician. Born into a Jewish family, he took great pains to accept his homosexuality to his family including his mother and his uncle, Salomon. The latter, a wealthy banker, offered him a deal: he'll gives him 10 million francs and bequeaths his mansion if Simon agrees to marry. First reluctant, he met Rosalie Baumann, a Jewish Yiddish singer, very observant, whose parents live in the United States. Little by little, getting to know her, Simon falls in love with her.
