The Fairy is a romantic slapstick comedy set in Le Havre. The opening scene is quite beautifully shot: Dom (Dominique Abel) rides his bike along the port in the beating rain, charming in his combination of plastic head- and shoe- and torso-coverings and undaunted vigor. Due to an uncooperative bike chain, Dom arrives late to the hotel where he works the night shift at the front desk.
