Plot
Jacques Belin, a famous TV gameshow host, awaits his fiancée on New Year's Eve in the café of the Gare de l'Est in Paris. When she fails to show up, he meets a woman named Frède, a charmless and rather vulgar woman, just out of prison, who is drinking the night away while waiting for her morning train to Metz where she is going to live with her sister. Complete opposites, Jacques and Frède's respective solitudes bring them together as they talk and drink. An eventful and unforgettable evening follows ...
