Known for Acting
The Fête des Vignerons is opening its doors to Swiss comedians and searching for that rare gem for its 2019 edition. While artists from the new generation are rushing to audition, Marie-Thérèse Porchet doesn't understand why she should stoop to auditioning, as she is so certain that she alone embodies the spirit of the legendary Vevey festival. Will she achieve her goal despite stiff competition?
Real estate agencies, property managers, and rental agencies are not always kind to their tenants. But when the tenant is Marie-Thérèse Porchet, she becomes a nightmare for her landlord! Especially when she decides to rent an apartment in Geneva and turn it into a fashionable brothel. Upon learning of these dubious activities, the management company decides to terminate her lease. But Marie-Thérèse is not going to take this lying down.
Marie-Thérèse really doesn't know how to make ends meet anymore. It's hard to find a place among the growing number of comedians in Switzerland; the circus is in crisis, there aren't even any elephants anymore! So it's by renting a large eight-room apartment and putting girls to work there that dear Marie-Thérèse finally manages to make a little extra cash, albeit under the pretext of giving rhythm classes! Upon discovering this highly dubious activity, the landlord decided to intervene and try to evict everyone from his apartment, which had been turned into a brothel.

To support her candidacy, she conducted extensive research into all aspects of the game. Disappointed that she was ultimately not selected, she decided to do everything in her power to ensure that the Swiss team won the competition. A tall order...
