The women on the 6th floor Les femmes du 6e étage

Streaming video - 2012

The French tradition of comedy built around impeccable timing and flawless acting is alive and well in this farce about a group of vibrant Spanish maids who shake things up in 1960s Paris. Jean-Louis has a quiet, bourgeois existence, living peacefully with his neurotic socialite wife Suzanne while their children are at boarding school. The couple's world is turned upside-down when they hire a Spanish maid Maria. Jean-Louis is introduced to an alternative reality--the servants' quarters--where he befriends a group of sassy Spanish maids, refugees of the Franco regime, who teach him there's more to life than stocks and bonds, and whose influence on the house will ultimately transform everyone's life.
