Description: "Hysterical and heartwarming, [a] wildly popular French original about three bachelors with fatherhood thrust upon them [...].

Jacques, Michel and PIerre are three virile men who are no strangers to finding young, single females at the door of their lavishly decorated, sprawling Paris bachelor pad. But they find that there are limits to the allure of youth when one female -- a wailing, three-month-old baby girld -- is deposited on their doorstep for what seems to be an extended stay. The product of Jacques' brief affair with a woman named Sylvia, the adorable little Marie catapults the men into a world of dirty diapers, destroyed furniture and sleeples -- and sexless -- nights. But just as Marie begins to steal the hearts of her new 'daddies,' Sylvia reappears to whisk her away. Can they return to a life of empty sexual conquests... or have the lives of these three men been changed forever by their brief encounter with the cradle?"
