In Laurence Kasdan's Big Chill; a death (suicide) causes a group of friends to meet again after many years and reconnect with each other. That movie was about people loosing touch with many things in life in the coldness of this world.
Canet's Little White Lies, is a twist on the original premise. One of a group (Parissian) friends has an accident; but as nobody really cares about the others; they continue their planned vacation leaving the guy at the hospital alone by himself.
There is not a complete story about each one of them; just hints; but that is enough to realize the selfishness of this people. Also to mark the difference between city and rural people.
In brief; it is a very good movie; a little long perhaps but worth seeing
