Through the neighborhoods of Paris, love is veiled, revealed, imitated, sucked dry, reinvented and awakened

Movie has many famous directors and actors, result is a really splendid multicultural mosaic of what Paris is!. There is a short part for each neighborhood, and a good way to link them all into a movie - Rotten tomatoes.com gave it 85% positive reviews!
