A man is charged with murder. He is Pigoil, the aging stage manager at
Chansonia, a music hall in a Paris faubourg. His confession is a long
flashback to New Year's Eve, 1935, when he discovers his wife is
unfaithful and Galapiat, the local mobster, closes the music hall. Over
the next few months, Pigoil loses custody of his beloved son, Jo-Jo, and
must find work. Pigoil and his pals take over the Chansonia as a co-op;
Galapiat is momentarily benign. Their star is the young Douce, a girl
from near Lille for whom Galapiat lusts. She in turn falls in love with
Milou, a local Red. There are ups and downs, but mostly ups - but what
about Jo-Jo and what about the murder?
