In 1937, Adèle and Etienne Grandclément are childless recently retired civil servants. Their dream comes true when they buy a detached house called "Villa Marguerite". In their quiet street, they lead a peaceful life and dedicate themselves to their one passion: good food. In 1940, the north-south boundary line narrowly places the Villa Marguerite within France's free zone. But Adèle and Etienne aren't spared the deprivation of war. And after eating a goose on November 11th, they are denounced and put in jail. Fortunately, Marie Fuller, who helps prisoners, manages to get them out. Now their close friend, she keeps delivering them products from her cousins' farm. Marie loves the Villa Marguerite so much that she even asks Adèle and Etienne to rent her a room, which they can hardly refuse. Then start the mysterious coming and goings of tongue-tied strangers and suitcases. And when Marie goes away, to help the needy she says, her friends' parade doesn't stop. Adèle and Etienne, stuffed with the poultry and foie gras that they keep receiving, don't see anything wrong in it. They don't seem to worry when they discover gold bars and dollars between two pâtés. As long as they are fed - But after Etienne's death from overeating, things start to change with the Liberation of France. However, blind friendship and gratitude go deep. Written by Happy_Evil_Dude
