Le Prénom
Get ready for a dinner party gone hilariously wrong in "Le Prénom" (translated as "What's in a Name?"). This French comedy, based on the the highly successful stage version of the same name, centres around a group of close friends – Vincent, a successful businessman expecting a child, his sister Elisabeth and her more intellectual husband Pierre, and their longtime bachelor friend Claude. As the evening unfolds, Vincent reveals the surprising name he's chosen for his baby, sparking a heated debate. Old tensions resurface, secrets are exposed, and hidden resentments boil over. Confined to the single setting of Pierre and Elisabeth's apartment, the film relies on witty dialogue and sharp performances to deliver a laugh-out-loud comedy that explores the complexities of friendship, family, and the weight we place on a simple name.
