À l'Épreuve

I hesitate between calling this a comedy or a drama; maybe more comedy. Anyway it is light hearted, but realistic, showing the true face of daily life of many folks now, in France. And not only in France, I guess. A young lady in her early twenties, jobless, alone to raise her only son, finally finds a job as a garbage collector; it is entertaining, refreshing, fun, cool to watch. Nothing gritty here, and we also can see this as a semi documentary about those workers without whom the life for populations would be unbearable. Just watch it with your kids, mother in law, the whole neighborhood and friends. Before forgetting it. I will.
