Forty-five-year-old bomb disposal expert Erwan (François Damiens) has discovered, quite by accident, that the man who raised him isn’t actually his real dad. With the help of a private detective agency, he attempts to track down his biological father, a quest that leads to a chance encounter with veterinarian Anna (Cécile de France) whom he falls in love with. Meanwhile, Erwan’s daughter Juliette has learnt she is pregnant and is in no hurry to find out who the father is. Misdirection and amusing misunderstandings abound in this sparkling comedy. (Notes by Marie-Pierre Richard)

Director’s Note: Bouncing along with improbable situations which stack together like a surprising puzzle, this comedy is a reinvigorating tonic!
