    • Synopsis
    • Forty-something Pascaline runs a brasserie and her stylish dining room is fully booked for Valentine's Day. She thinks she's prepared everything. But how could she expect that an old flame from 20 years ago would suddenly reappear and ask her to leave with him to Buenos Aires. Her other diners must also cope with the unexpected. 50 year-old, bored housewife, Rose, informs her husband that she has a lover. Mia, approaching 30 and thinking of suicide, is romanced by waiter, Lesley. And shy clerk, Walter, panics when he finds himself seated in front of the woman of his dreams.
