June 1940. The Germans enter Paris. A strict curfew is in effect everywhere except the Grand Hotel Ritz. Eager to experience the art of living à la française, the hotel's residents meet the Parisian elite, and behind the bar works Frank Meyer, the greatest bartender in the world.

Adaptation is a matter of survival. Frank Meyer proves to be a skilled diplomat, winning the sympathy of the German officers. For four years, the Gestapo will drink to Coco Chanel, the terrible widow Ritz, or Sacha Guitry. Men and women, collaborators and resistance fighters, heroes and informers, will love each other, betray each other, and fight for the desired idea of world order.

Most of them do not know that Frank Meyer, an Austrian émigré and veteran of the 1914 war, is hiding a secret. The bartender of the Ritz is Jewish.
