On the occasion of the death of its beloved Kansas-born editor Arthur Howitzer, Jr., the staff of The French Dispatch, a widely circulated American magazine based in the French city of Ennui-sur-Blasé, convenes to write his obituary. Memories of Howitzer flow into the creation of four stories: a travelogue of the seediest sections of the city itself; a article about a criminally insane painter; a chronicle of love and death on the barricades at the height of student revolt; and a suspenseful tale of drugs, kidnapping and fine dining.
Presented at Cannes and San Sebastián film festivals.
