When surrogate Marise unexpectedly goes into labor during an apéritif, expectant dads Jean-Luc and Patrick see their carefully planned evening unravel into joyful chaos. Between panic, misunderstandings and an unlikely hostage situation, they discover that parenthood is unpredictable, messy—and ultimately guided by love.
Pareena Noguès was born in Thailand, adopted in France, and grew up between multiple worlds. Her journey shaped a deep sensitivity to plural identities, invisible narratives, and intimate wounds. Marked by abandonment and a severe electrocution accident, she transforms personal trauma into cinematic material through raw, emotionally driven storytelling infused with humor, absurdity, and surrealism. Her films include La résilience and Le vœu d’anniversaire (2024), Le Court Circuit and Silencio (2025), as well as Livraison Express, a single-take short blending tender comedy and chaos.
