With his wine business on the brink of bankruptcy Jacques (Bernard Campan) who is divorced, disgruntled and in his fifties, does not have much to smile about, until Hortense (Isabelle Carré) stumbles into his shop.

With his wine business on the brink of bankruptcy Jacques (Bernard Campan) who is divorced, disgruntled and in his fifties, does not have much to smile about. Not feeling quite particularly inspired by the next step in his life, Jacques is close to giving up until Hortense (Isabelle Carré) stumbles into his shop. Light-hearted and kind, Hortense works as a nurse – and is so completely enchanted by the babies she delivers, she is determined to find love and have a child of her own.

This could be the start of something seemingly wonderful for them both but as they grow closer and closer, their pasts begin to catch up with them. A testament to the power of love and a great glass of wine.

Screening as part of French Film Festival UK.
