    • Synopsis
    • Vincent Machot lives in a small provincial town. He feels that his life, shared between his hairdressing salon, his possessive mother and the sexual obsessions of his cousin, Laurent, is becoming increasingly dismal... One Sunday, having jumped on his bike to find a corner store open somewhere, he experiences a strange feeling of déjà-vu when his eyes meet the gaze of the shopkeeper. Where has he met her before? Drawn despite himself, Vincent starts to follow this woman through the city.
      What he doesn't know is that Rosalie has long since noticed that he is following her. She has even got her niece, Aude, and her two resourceful girlfriends to find out more about him. These four women, usually solitary, but now united, take on Vincent at his own game. Aude quickly gets a taste for her new mission, which spices up a life she sees as being too quiet, drifting between precarious jobs and the delusional inventions of her "flatmate", a circus performer.
      Unconsciously, she lets herself become more and more intrigued by this man for whom she has an increasing attraction.
      Soon, the game becomes reality. Aude and Rosalie speed up an encounter that will change the lives of all three of them. Together, they break away from their solitude and rediscover a pleasure buried for too long in their memories.
