Claudio C Dec 12 Witty French Comedy (12,124 – 12 Dec 2025) In the outskirts of Paris, Victor "Zim" Zimbietrovski is a young man that lives with his mother. plays guitar in a band and works at the market. While driving his motorcycle, Zim has a minor accident. The judge says that he must find a steady job; otherwise, he will go to prison. Zim meets his friends, Cheb and Arthur, who ask him to find a place to hide their friend Safia. Kim looks for a job and when he finally finds one, he lies. With the help of his friends, he needs a high school diploma, a driving license and a car to work. But he gets into more trouble trying to achieve what he needs. "Zim and Co." (2005) is a witty French low-budget comedy by Pierre Jolivet. The story is attractive and shows how poor non-Caucasian people is badly treated by the French police. The scene when they request documents to Cheb and Arthur twice is sadly hilarious. My vote is seven. Title (Brazil): "Amigo é Pra Essas Coisas" ("That's What Friends Are for") See more 06/11/2011 A light comedy of teens' coming of age happened in France.
