Radio man Jules Berry wrecks his car and is invited by a suburb family for diner. He finds the gossip conversation so funny he imagines a radio show around this punctual diner, without telling the family, the leader being Noël Noël. But at the café du Commerce of the village, local people meet at that hour for the ritual aperitif listening to the gossip family show they identify in their village. They wonder who's talking about themselves and funny misunderstandings appear. Director Christian Stengel and his writers Noël Noël and René Wheeler show how France was living just before WWII and the importance of radio broadcasting with all kind of shows. One of the radio employee is Jean Solar, cousin of Christian Stengel, who wrote songs with Francis Blanche for Charles Trenet. In some of his movies, Stengel was interested in new talents and way of life : singer Charles Trenet in "Je chante", radio TSF in "la Famille Duraton", television in "Seul dans la nuit", the famous car Dyna Panhard in "Casse-cou, mademoiselle". Stengel was not a great director, just popular and entertaining.
