Philippe Abrams is director of the Salon-de-Provence post office. To make his wife happy, Philippe commits fraud in order to obtain a transfer to the Côte d'Azur. But he is found out: he is transferred to Bergues, a little town in the North instead. For the Abrams family – Southerners full of prejudices – the North is an awful, cold region inhabited by uncivilised people who speak an incomprehensible language, known as "cheutimi". Philippe moves there alone...

The secret to the success of Dany Boon's hilarious comedy, which attracted more than 800,000 viewers to Swiss cinemas in 2008, lies in its pointed wit and subtle irony, which skillfully plays with clichés and regional identities. Boon, who himself comes from the northern region of France, has succeeded in making an unconventional, lively film about friendship; a global hym to local dialects.
