With her mother away for the weekend, a brash and precocious ten-year-old country girl sets out to explore Paris during a Métro strike under her uncle's not-so-watchful eye. But can a little girl cause so much chaos in the city centre?

This merry farce depicts a satirical view of the French society: Ten-year-old Zazie has to stay two days with her relatives in Paris, so that her mother can spend some time with her lover.

Now, as Gabriel struggles to give Zazie a guided tour, the fearless child sets out to explore the picturesque and bustling Parisian metropolis, encountering many exciting characters while causing chaos in the very heart of the city.
