Perfect for both casual viewers and cinephiles, this film is a delightful addition to any home entertainment collection. ## Description Post office manager Philippe Abrams lives in the quaint northern town of Salon-de-Provence with his perpetually depressed wife Julie. His bosses transfer him to Bergues in the frozen north. Leaving behind Julie and expecting the worst, Philippe is surprised to find that the people of Bergues are delightful and friendly, especially postman, who becomes a good friend. Returning home, Philippe regales Julie with stories of the warmth of people in the north but she refuses to believe him, convinced it is a ploy to stop her slip-sliding even further into her black mood. So Philippe tries some reverse psychology, saying that Bergues is, in fact, hell on earth. Review: Nice Comedy – Light and Fun Family Movie - A really enjoyable comedy — don’t overthink it, just sit back and have a good time. Some of the dialogue is in regional dialect (like Ch’ti), so it might be a bit hard to follow for some viewers, but overall it’s easy to enjoy. I also had the chance to watch the Italian version, which is very similar and just as funny. Both versions are great for a relaxed family evening with plenty of laughs. Pros: ✔️ Lighthearted and funny ✔️ Great for families ✔️ Regional humor adds charm Cons: ❌ Some lines in patois might be hard to understand without subtitles Review: A Real Gem! - I do not speak French but am becoming a fan of Dany Boon and have purchased more movies he has starred in and/or directed. This movie is hilarious and extremely well written with great acting. Even though I read the subtitles I had the volume turned up. The movie is about Philippe (Kad Merad) who is as a manager in a post office and his difficult wife pressures him constantly to get a transfer down south to the French Rivera which he tries but it is impossible for him as they give those positions to handicapped people. After unsuccessfully trying to get a transfer he pretends he is handicapped but is caught out. As punishment Philippe is transferred to Bergues, the very top of the north, for two years - to the "sticks". Everyone thinks the north is always extremely cold and raining, and the people are unsophisticated and speak their own language. He leaves his wife and son behind as he does not think they would survive living in the north after hearing all the stories and goes alone returning every second weekend. When Philippe drives to the north he is miserable believing all he has heard. Dany Boon plays Antoine, a postal delivery man, working under Philipe. The chemistry between them is fantastic along with the other actors and the humour is great. It just gets better and better from here. A real delightful film!!! ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Contributor | Alexandre Charlot, Dany Boon, Kad Merad, Zoé Félix | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 2,667 Reviews | | Format | DVD | | Genre | Comedy | | Language | French | | Runtime | 1 hour and 46 minutes | ## Product Details - **Contributor:** Alexandre Charlot, Dany Boon, Kad Merad, Zoé Félix - **Format:** DVD - **Genre:** Comedy - **Language:** French - **Runtime:** 1 hour and 46 minutes ## Images ![Bienvenue Chez Les Ch'tis (Welcome to the Sticks) French with English Subtitles Region 1 DVD, USA/Canada Edition - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51g0jQBMwoL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Comedy – Light and Fun Family Movie *by L***N on August 3, 2025* A really enjoyable comedy — don’t overthink it, just sit back and have a good time.

A real delightful film!!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An Enjoyable Evening Watch *by D***B on May 10, 2013* This was a gift and enjoyed by all who watched. The story is indeed funny. The relationship of the wife, husband and family life is unifying and amazingly solid in a humorous way. The humor is about France culture: the north versus the south and, of course, about family and friends. The one aspect I did not expect was that in the North the French accent is quite different. For one that is just learning French, this accent, exaggerated, makes it more difficult to pick up. The objective in buying this movie was to practice listening to French. The movie was so funny that we did not even care if the listening aspect was a bit difficult. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4458518-bienvenue-chez-les-chtis-welcome-to-the-sticks-french-english](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/4458518-bienvenue-chez-les-chtis-welcome-to-the-sticks-french-english) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
