Le Roi des Étudiants

In a cramped twelve‑square‑metre room on rue St‑Georges, a quartet of medical students turns a quiet night into a raucous celebration. Després, the self‑styled “king of students,” leads the chorus of laughter, whisky, and off‑key songs, while Cardon, Lafleur, and the quick‑witted Caboulot each add their own brand of mischief. Their banter swirls with clever wordplay, exaggerated boasts, and a shared reverence for the absurd—turning the tiny space into a storm of camaraderie and reckless joy.

When the enigmatic newcomer Paul Champfort steps through the door, the party reaches a fever pitch. Tall, handsome, and instantly charismatic, Champfort becomes both catalyst and confidant, urging his friends to abandon their studies for one unforgettable night. Amid the clinking glasses and improvised chants, the group’s bond deepens, hinting at the friendships and rivalries that will shape their lives beyond the lecture halls. Listeners are invited to soak in the lively spirit of youthful excess and the promise of adventures yet to come.
