This discreet love story about a soulful 45-year-old oncologist who falls deeply in love with a beautiful, very independent 70-year-old retired architect. Melvil Poupaud’s and Fanny Ardent’s nuanced performances bring a fullness and depth to those characters, bypassing the usual clichés; expressing the thrill, anguish and vulnerability of falling in love — at any age — and revealing how true love is not at all blind, but flies in the face of the confines and preconceptions that society often likes to saddle it with.
