At the town hall, nothing ever comes to a halt.
Mail arrives and letters must be answered. Babies are born and must be recorded with the civil register… and the town needs to set up crèches, build schools…
Administrative agents, wardens and caretakers, municipal councillors, maintenance officers, the mayor, elected officials and civil servants all take care of our lives in the cities and towns.

Immersing herself in the daily life of the town hall of the French city of Amiens, filmmaker Claude-Julie Parisot captures how day after day, tenaciously, without making a song and dance about it, the "people at the Town Hall" work together for the common good of the local citizens.
