Hideko Yamashita is Japan's best-known tidying and decluttering expert; her book "Decluttering your life, freeing your soul" has sold an incredible three million copies worldwide. But what if we not only decluttered our material possessions, but also our circle of friends? Who could be disposed of without feelings of loss - and wouldn't that free up an incredible amount of private time?

The successful author duo Matthieu Delaporte and Alexandre de La Patellière ("The First Name") take the minimalism hype as an opportunity for their comedy in the best French tabloid tradition: Pierre and Clotilde decide to part ways with long-time friends - with a stylish farewell dinner, after all. But they haven't reckoned with Antoine, who has no intention of giving up their friendship without a fight. An evening that naturally gets completely out of hand - with a surprising finale!
