Amelie

Amelie out to change some lives
It's always easier to sort out other people's lives ... but not your own

Amelie is a shy young woman with a pronounced taste for all of Life’s small pleasures: immersing one’s hand in a sack of grain or skipping stones on the Canal Saint Martin.

In the night of August 30th 1997, it suddenly hits her: she decides to straighten out other people’s lives. But who’s going to straighten out her life?

The story is directed by Jean-Pierre (“The City Of Lost Children”)

Has she found a victim
Jeunet: “When Amelie discovers a tin box of boyhood treasures concealed in her bathroom wall, she decides to track down the now-grown owner and anonymously return the knickknacks. The result convinces her she can change lives with a few judicious tweaks to the environments of those around her.”
