ORIGINAL PILOTS
Pardon My American
The Franco-American hero throws his first dinner party for his new American friends. Through the eyes of a “cultural analyst” narrator, who gives us a humorous play by play analysis of all his cultural faux pas, the hero redoes this evening, thanks to the magical powers of his guardian angel narrator, until he “gets it right”. The pilot explores society through the lens of French-American biculturalism and gives a glimpse into how these two cultures can clash.
