Studio Synopsis: Jessica (Cecile de France), a beautiful young woman from the provinces who comes to Paris, lands a job waiting tables at a chic bistro on fabled Avenue Montaigne, the cityÕs nexus for art, music, theater and fashion. JessicaÕs customers include a popular TV actress (Valˇrie Lemercier) who is courting a major Hollywood director (Sydney Pollack) for her first serious film role; a wealthy art collector (Claude Brasseur) who is about to liquidate a lifetimeÕs worth of treasures at auction; and an illustrious classical pianist (Albert Dupontel) who is at odds with his manager/wife (Laura Morante) as to where his career is headed. Precisely because Jessica doesnÕt know how celebrated these people are, her guileless and completely unintimidated engagement in their lives has a transforming effect on them Š and ultimately her.
