When Chloe, a young Parisian, decides to take a long-overdue vacation, she has to find someone to look after Gris-Gris, her beloved cat. Everyone, including her gay male roommate, refuses to help her, but she finally makes an arrangement with the elderly Madame Renée, who often watches over other peoples' cats and dogs. However, when Chloe comes back, Madame Renée tells her that unfortunately the cat has been lost, and the unlucky owner goes on a search for her dear animal friend. While looking for the cat, she meets many colorful characters who populate the neighborhood.

Cédric Klapisch constructs a light, almost documentary-like chronicle of a Parisian neighborhood, relying on naturalistic dialogue and location shooting. The film explores urban loneliness through the lens of casual encounters and small, authentic details.
What lingers after the credits is the warm, melancholic portrait of a community, where the lost cat is merely a pretext for a gentle stroll through the film's true protagonist—Paris itself. — MovieFinder Editorial
