Thirty-something
Camille (Viard, who recently won a César for her performance
in Haut les coeurs) is an accident who keeps happening. At
parties, she gets drunk and stoned and throws up on the hostess' bed.
Desperate to be loved, but at the same time demanding to have everything
her own way, Camille threatens to alienate everyone in her life. Careering
toward a nervous breakdown, she collides one day with a passing stranger
on the street and drops her bag of newly-bought antidepressants. He
kindly helps her to pick them up and she falls instantly, foolishly,
in love. But Alexis (Rajot) is the epitome of seriousness and stability
- a doctor and a Socialist Party Organizer, married with two kids
- and not at all interested in jumping headlong into an affair with
a selfish and neurotic woman. Camille is not to be stopped. She insinuates
herself into his life by joining the Socialist Party and even by joining
his family, as "Aunt Camille" to his kids. Finally he relents.
But Camille will never be entirely satisfied until she wrests him
away from his wife and possesses him totally, on her own terms. A
comic portrait of a deeply troubled woman who wont take no for
an answer and refuses to learn from experience! A romantic comedy
for the dysfunctional age.
