Original · Merci pour le geste

A story about a man and his dog, this film is a wrought urban drama about the gritty realities of life on the street. Middle-aged Michel wanders the streets of Paris aimlessly until he happens upon an abused dog. When the police threaten to take the animal away, he reluctantly turns to his former lover who works with the city. The results prove to be disastrous for the brittle Michel.
