The story
After two years without contact and several romantic mishaps, Claire returns to recharge her batteries with her father Albert and Gédéon, the man who has shared Albert’s house for thirty years. The two men form an unconventional couple, their temperaments fundamentally opposite. Rather than finding the comfort she expected, Claire encounters the complexities of this atypical family trio. Meanwhile, a detective—described as sharp at his job but a pathetic seducer—brings secrets from the men’s flower-power past back to light.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
Albert (Daniel Prévost) and Gédéon (Patrick Chesnais) have formed an unconventional “couple” for thirty years: fundamentally opposite in temperament, they have shared the same house since Albert was widowed. When Claire (Judith Godrèche), Albert’s daughter, comes to recharge her batteries with her “parents” after two years of radio silence and several romantic mishaps, she does not find the comfort she was expecting. This atypical family trio will see the secrets of a flower-power past resurface, brought to light by a cop (Alexandre Astier) who is as sharp a detective as he is a pathetic seducer.
