LA VIE
A new creation by The 7 Fingers

La Vie is about insanity, sorrow, bad behaviour, pain, airplane accident and romantic love gone terribly wrong - but it's funny, joyful, and very sexy. It is 90 minutes of the unexpected, the hysterical and the surprisingly moving.
See your e-mails: the PRESALE will start on JULY 10!

Be VIP at LA VIE media première, and give free rein to your joy with 3 friends! Hurry up! This contest ends on July 9, 2008.
