awesomegnome:

just watched this movie, Paris, je t’aime, totally in love. My favorites shorts were:

• the one with the muslim girl
• the one with the woman with cancer
• the one with the mother briefing his dead child
• the one with the mimes
• the one with the nigerian man
• the one with the vampire
• the one with the blind guy. THIS WAS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE
• And the last one with the american woman visiting Paris.
