This movie firstly seems to be a comedy confronting two women with radically different attitude about sex: Patty describes her very active sex life with a lot of embarrassing details to the shy and conservative bourgeois Caroline who just wants to conduct the funeral for her mother. Beyond these very funny scenes, it turns out to be a beautiful, heart-warming and poetic reflection about sex, happiness, grief and death. We follow Caroline in her journey from a sad, conventional, "respectable" life to the discovery of simple happiness, helped by the memories of her late libertine mother and a series of funny and nice people. The two main actresses are wonderful. (Note that contrary to what this review may imply, there are no sex scenes in this movie, although some language may sound very explicit).
