Storyline
| Plot Summary |
At 25, Christophe and J-P are struggling happily and without bitterness in their city. The work in a supermarket for one and odd jobs for the other leave their minds free to dream about the girls: Malika, J-P's sister, and Maya, Christophe's cousin. Unscrupulous and clumsy lovers at leisure, they must deploy treasures of the imagination to attract the attention of two girls who think only of studies, a symbol of freedom and celebrations. Not in the least complex, and not decided either to appear what they are not, JP and Christophe navigate between a crappy robbery of which they are the incredulous witnesses, a theater performance of which they are the forbidden spectators and a stay in the countryside of which they are the perplexed hostages. And the girls in all this? They will see as soon as events give them time. |
