Merci pour le chocolat (2000)

aka

Süßes Gift Austria (cable TV title) / Germany
Nightcap International (festival title) (English title)



A young woman discovers that she may have been switched at birth and presents herself to her possible father And slowly discovers the dark secrets that connect her family with his.

Typical for its director this is a meticulously made satire of French/Swiss bourgeois society with a somewhat puzzling plot and an unexciting ending.
