Oshri Cohen plays 16-year-old Schlomi in Tel Aviv, Israel, whose
family is mildly dysfunctional: His mother is a screeching temperamental
woman and his father is an adulterous hypochondriac. Only his grandfather
shows affection for the young hero and speaks to him in French —
hence the title.

When Schlomi is discovered in school to be a Math genius, he has
to decide between leaving home to study with other gifted teens
in Haifa and staying home to care for his family members.

The film is neither very deep nor moving, but Bonjour Monsieur
Schlomi does have its sweet, sensitive moments.
