France 1919. Paul, a sculptor, goes from village to village erecting the memorials to the dead which blossom throughout the country. But when he arrives in the small town of Sancerre, the traumatisms of war resurface: after so many names engraved in stone, will this memorial at last be a return to the living?

Jérôme Niel, who gained recognition as a comedian on the Internet ("La Ferme Jérôme" or "Les Tutos") and is now making his mark in cinema ("Balle perdue 2," "Vermines," and "Daaaaaali!"), is trying his hand at the stage with his first one-man show. The comedian unfolds an absurd and offbeat universe in a unique visual and physical style, mastering the art of the unexpected, placing him on the border between American Jim Carrey and French Albert Dupontel. It's a show like no other; it's Jérôme Niel's show.
