ADIEU PARIS tells the story of eight friends, mostly in their seventies, who meet up for an annual lunch that has become a ritual over the decades. They are the so-called self-appointed “kings of Paris”: national treasures, masterpieces in peril, whose humor and self-mockery have never changed. Tender and cruel, they love and hate each other. But their long-established relationships take on new meanings when an intruder steps in.
