Amidst a schedule of art openings, sessions with their personal trainer, social events and hiking, middle-aged couple Pomme and Pierre spend their time bickering.
During one of their woodland walks an argument erupts: Pomme, tired of always trying to patch things up, snatches Pierre’s rain-coat, fleece and backpack and flees into the forest to spend the night. Not knowing what to do, Pierre goes home…
Through the colourful pairing of Devos and Amalric, writer-director Fillières blends slapstick and farce with agile and inventive dialogue in this tragic-comic tale. (MPR)
Director’s Note: Devos, a regular collaborator with Sophie Fillières, is exquisite as Pomme, alongside Amalric’s Pierre – impenetrable, unbending and yet somehow charming.
