A Christmas Carol

A close friendship between two girls is eclipsed by an accidental poisoning at school.

A random act of malice sets in motion a domino run of coincidences and catastrophes turning one man's ordinary day into a living nightmare.

A couple from the French countryside/provinces visit their country's capital city. A guide leads them to Paris' seedy side such as sex shops, adults-only cinemas, live-sex-show clubs, etc.

Suzie is a 36-year-old woman-child trapped in her unremarkable life. Kate is an old lady trapped in a 21-year-old's body. Together, they are a disaster. It's not all bad - as the two women get closer, they even begin to help each other. Suzie teaches Kate to enjoy her youth and shed her inner pensioner, while Kate teaches Suzie to act her age.

Grief? Depression? Ambiguity in a Paris hotel room. Jack Whitman lies on a bed, ordering a grilled cheese sandwich from room service. His phone rings; it's a woman on her way to see him, a surprise. He readies the room, moving without affect, drawing a bath, changing his clothes. She arrives, as does the food, and the complications of their relationship emerge in bits and pieces. He invites her out on the balcony to see his view. Will they make love? Is the relationship over?
