Sisters

Just outside of Paris, there is a community of Benedictine nuns. They come from diverse backgrounds and do not all speak the same language. In between prayers, they work to sustain their religious community. They sell handmade rosaries and operate guest rooms where they also accommodate refugees in need of shelter, such as Halyna, who fled from Ukraine. The older nuns teach the younger ones, transcending cultural boundaries. Every day, the sisters learn to live together a little better, always following the rules of Saint Benedict, whom they have followed into this cloistered life.

Mes drôles de papys

Alex and Julien, in their sixties, living together for thirty years, have adopted Charlotte, who is now thirty. She gave them an adorable little girl, Clara, now five years old. This weekend, Charlotte calls them for help to keep Clara. For Alex and Julien, keeping their little girl busy for two days is a first! Quite a challenge for these “funny grandpas”.
