Synopsis:
This cultivated comedy ironically analyzes the corroded bourgeois society through the story of a couple (Ludovic and Marthe) by extracting them from the routine superficial relationships. Even though they are already married and are cousins by marriage, Ludovic and Marthe are attracted to each other. The film was nominated for an Oscar.
