Synopsis:

A veteran undertaker has to learn how to keep up with the times in this comedy from France. Gervais (Didier Bourdon) has been working for an upscale funeral home in Paris for years, but the business isn't making as much money as it once did. The owners of the home think Gervais could use some fresh ideas, so Gabriel (Marc-Andre Grondin), a younger man who works for a funeral home owned by the same company, is brought in to educate Gervais about new and innovative ways of dealing with the dead and their families. Not all of Gabriel's ideas click with Gervais and the older man isn't always a quick study; matters become stickier when Gabriel develops a very un-businesslike attraction to Claire (Berenice Bejo), a beautiful woman who is also one of the company's clients. Bouquet Final (aka Final Arrangements) also features guest appearances from Gerard Depardieu and Marthe Keller.

Recruited as sales manager for the Paris branch of a US undertaker's, Gabriel goes on a three-month training course to learn on the job beside Gervais Bron, who has been in the trade for 15 years. He manages to hide his new job from his parents and girlfriend, Claire, who see him as a successful musician, until the day when he charges an elderly man a fortune for a funeral, that old man being none other than Claires grandfather.

An American funeral director is recruited to a job in Paris.
