The Fête des Vignerons is opening its doors to Swiss comedians and searching for that rare gem for its 2019 edition. While artists from the new generation are rushing to audition, Marie-Thérèse Porchet doesn't understand why she should stoop to auditioning, as she is so certain that she alone embodies the spirit of the legendary Vevey festival. Will she achieve her goal despite stiff competition?

Believing she had come to bring some comfort to a French-speaking Swiss audience exiled in German-speaking Switzerland, Marie-Thérèse learns that she is actually facing an entirely German-speaking Swiss audience! When she realizes that she will have to perform her show in Bourbine, she clumsily attempts to hang herself with a rope... which has the surprising effect of causing her to speak only in Swiss German! The only glimmer of hope is that Molière's language returns to her when she sings a little song...

It's no longer a mystery, Marie-Thérèse Porchet is not née Bertholet, but Gorgoni, without a skirt or purse or wig. Joseph tells his story and that of his character. The one who has played Marie-Thérèse for two decades discusses the women of his life, the ones who inspired him, including his grandma, his boss, and one of his idols: Zouc. Without forgetting Dalida, Nina Hagen, Madonna, or Diane Dufresne, who contributed to the fact that at eight years old, when asked what he wanted to be when he grew up, Joseph replied without hesitation: "singer."
