But are you crazy? You’re going to ruin this suitcase. It’s not a trampolino, after all. Hold this for me for a second. Phone.
I’m going. You’re undermining my
paternal authority. A brand new suitcase.
Hold. Hello? Julie, this is for you, it’s Leonard.
Here’s this too. Come on. Yeah, I’ll take it to my room,
hang up when I tell you to. All right. But Julie,
you’re not dressed yet? We’re leaving there. Oh, fuck it, we’re on vacation, right? What a pain this kid is being right now. Go ahead, you can. She’s not really wrong, because since
this morning, you’ve been very nervous. Put this in your suitcase, here. I’d like to see you there, you’re not the one
who’s going to have to do 800 km of crowded highway. No, not this time. But I have to admit,
since we’ve known each other, I do it more often than you. Why are you hardening this dinosaur? Tiranosaurus ! This is to see if it is not pierced. What you’re doing there is really useful. When you’re in the pool,
you’ll thank me. I want to arrive
early, you understand? My little kitty, you’re not going to choose,
you just have to take all your books. You have to go get the key
from the caretaker, do the lines, do the shopping,
and then get the washing machine fixed. Ah good ? Well yes, it’s still broken. Do you think so? a degradation,
it’s classic. And then, I have to pick up
Simon’s friend at Avignon station tomorrow at noon. Don’t worry, it’ll be okay. No, it’s true, the first few days
are a little difficult. But afterward, you’ll see, it’s great. Sun all day,
little scorpion, little viper. You are truly hellish. Frederic, mom, a smile. It’s us! Good morning.
Fanny, this is Laetitia. Hello, welcome.
Is that it? Is this the start?
Yes. THANKS.
Hello Fanny. Good morning. Say, what courage you have. For me, vacations
are Club Med or nothing. You know, I’m delighted. It’s been so long since I
‘ve been away with the kids. Usually, in the summer, I work.
Well yes, like me. Besides, I have to go,
I’m being double-parked and I have a super important meeting at 11am. Actually, you’re lucky.
You’re not alone. You have Frederic.
He’s not coming here, Frederic! That’s not true. Didn’t I tell you? He’s preparing a report on, I don’t know,
a guy who won a big race in a sailboat, I don’t know. Anyway, he can’t come. But you’re going alone?
All alone? A way to talk with my three
beloved children and their friends! My God, my poor thing. Finally, it’s great that Frédéric is working.
Oh yes, I’m happy. It’s good for him. And for us? Anyway, the house looks great. Swimming pool, tennis in the village. An incredible opportunity because
it was really cheap, you know? Yes, that’s what you told me, yes. There is surely a hidden screw.
Stop! He’s jealous because
I found him. Do you want to see the photos? No, really, I swear, I would love to,
but I really don’t have the time. I’ll call you this evening.
All right. Laetitia, Mom is leaving.
Hi. Come on, thank you for everything.
Don’t worry. Everything will go very well.
Yes, I hope so. This phone. Have a nice holiday. Bye. Mom, this is for you.
Who is it ? I don’t know, an American. Simon, darling, won’t you
deflate this brontosaurus? A mother tyranosaurus. As you wish, but deflate. Don’t you want to help me? Hello
? Yes. No, no, no. Yes, of course. Your mother is making great progress
in English, listen. Oh, I see. I’ll call you back. Thank you.
Loans are a disaster. You don’t know who it was?
Clinton. Well?
Bill? Bob Edwards. I don’t know that one. Bob Edwards. Finally, who is it? He is an opera director,
one of the greatest today. The girls, Fanny, Julie.
What’s wrong with you? I guess he offered you a job?
Well… Yes. There for now, right away? He’s in Paris right now,
I have to meet him. On August 1st? Usually it’s Gertal Embray,
I’m a great German costume designer who works with him. But now she has fallen ill and
has to have an operation soon. Did he have time to tell you all this? Oh no, I already knew that,
everyone knows that. But I can’t. I guessed he
was going to call me to replace her. Well, neither do we. What’s going on?
I don’t understand anything. Children, it turns out that your
mother has decided to stay in Paris. I haven’t decided anything at all? Well, you can’t refuse an opportunity like that
. So what do we do with it? Well, we have to resist
Paris, that’s all. It’s not a disaster. Paris or Monaco, you’ll see,
it’s fantastic. There are only Japanese people everywhere,
you’d think you were in Tokyo. But it’s not fair,
you forbade me from going to England with Caroline , and now
you’re leaving us. My darling. Fuck you, I’m
sick of this shitty life. The richness of vocabulary of this young
girl who has just obtained her French baccalaureate, with honors, is truly astonishing. She’s right, I can’t do that to them. I call back immediately and refuse. What if I called Bertrand? Maybe he could take you. Well, that’s not going to be possible
because Dad is off to his next film.
It’s in Bordeaux. He won’t be here for another week.
Are you sure? Certain. One two three. Patrick. You, not at all, not at all. No, but stop sorting cards. I’m the pear, I’m the pear,
the pear of this family. But no, you’re a great guy and we love you. No, no, no, no,
no, Do you think it’s normal that I’m always the one who gives
up my job for you? You didn’t drop him,
you just pushed him away a little. It’s not that serious. Look, aren’t we
all happy here together? You seem very,
very nice to me right now. Are you telling me What are
you doing again? But nothing at all.
I’m so happy to be with you. I’m so sorry. Dad, when is your birthday?
It’s day. Never my love. There is a plot against us,
we will never succeed. No, no, no, no, no, no,
why don’t you do it like that? No, be careful. If someone has a
lit cigarette, you’ll explode. Do you want something to drink? No, none, please. Who were you calling? It’s none of your business? Confidence reigns. And Leonard, where is he going on vacation? I don’t know. I don’t give a shit about Leonardo. Calling someone you don’t give a damn about ten times a day
is really throwing money out the window. What exactly do you want to know? But nothing, my dear. I am a This is
a very banana question. You’ve been dating a guy for a year
who’s really put down roots at home. And all I ask you,
I’m going to tell you to answer, is where is he going on vacation? He goes camping. Where is that? In the south. Well, well.
Why, why, why? In the south, we too are
going to the south. We can see that it’s big. Where is he in the south? Since you want to know,
he’s going to the Saint-Saturnin campsite. No. But we also go to Saint-Saturnin. No, I don’t think so, but it’s
fate, it’s coincidence. So you’re making a big deal about us:
Oh, me, family, I want to be on family vacation and all that. I’m never allowed to
do anything that’s disgusting. And all this to join your
boyfriend at a campsite. It’s good that if I told
Mom, she would kill me. She still thinks I’m 12. Then, there is only you we
can confide in. Do you understand us? Julie, I’d be happy to be your
confidant, not your accomplice. Mind you, you said
I like Leonardo. Dad, I’m crazy. Me too. I had the levels checked, I’m happy, it’s good. Hello ? Ah, it’s you, my darling. So, did you arrive safely?
Oh no. We are in a hotel near Montélimar. Have
you had an accident? No, not. You’re not sure? No, not at all, but all over France,
they would meet you on the motorway, it was an exodus. Every year it’s the same thing. Oh no, every year it gets worse. You can believe me, right,
I know what I’m talking about. Oh, my poor darling,
I’m so sorry. How did you
find rooms? No, not rooms, one room,
because we’re all in the same one. That’s so cute, I’d like to see that. Please, I’ll give you a
seat whenever you want. I sense you’re furious now. Are
you mad at me? No, but please don’t find
cute the kind of nightmare I’ve been living since this afternoon. Don’t exaggerate a bit there. Why is going away with your
children a nightmare? And then stop making me feel guilty. You were the one who suggested this solution to me. I was ready to give up everything. Children, what would you
do with them if I weren’t here? Listen, before I met you,
I lived alone for four years. I did very well. Of course, because at the time,
your mother was alive and you were using her as a maid.
It was easy. My mother adored my children and was the one
who asked me for them every weekend. So, I ask my question again. Today, what would you
do if I weren’t here? Listen, I don’t know what I would do. I would put the children in boarding school
or summer camp. And then, old man,
if you earned a little more money, we would have fewer organizational problems. Eh ?
Say… Wait, but how do you expect
me to make money? Since I always sacrifice
my time for yours. Your job always
comes first. All right ?
Your job, your job, and your job. Okay, okay, I’ll stop everything. But then, you explain to me what we live on. It’s not my fault if… Also, please,
don’t start all your sentences with: It’s still not my fault if. The problem is not
knowing who is right or wrong. Dad.
What is it my love? My heart hurts. Okay, wait, don’t move. Hello ? Hello ? What’s wrong with my big baby? Do you feel like throwing up?
Come on, come on. You’ve eaten too much junk.
Go to the gym tomorrow. Go ahead. No, the little one
is just throwing up. Holidays are great, we have fun. But we’re having fun, okay? Here it is. How are you, Adrien? Are
you doing well ? Are you okay, Simon?
Hello Sir. Hey, good Ralinda there. Okay, you, little one,
hold each other’s hands because you mustn’t get lost. Is your hand not there? No, she had a
last-minute delivery, she didn’t cut. That’s stupid. And hey, Adrien, do
you know the expression “twisting the knife in the wound”?
Yes yes. As that’s exactly what you’re
doing, being nice, being stiff, being nice. There’s the drop that’s a little bit
angry, but anyway, don’t invite yourself, it’ll be fine, you see? Come on, tell me, was
your penis contract good? I have.
There were three minutes for you to do it. It’s not possible. Don’t look at that, you’ll get
earthworms in your stomach. I was expecting you yesterday. Mind you, that’s good
because the other tenants were still there at 10:00 p.m. They couldn’t leave because they had
lost the dog. That would have been a lot of people up there. In short, I had a lucky escape.
Yes. I’ll take the Jeep and
show you the way. Okay.
Why? It’s No, not too much, no,
but it’s that the road is not good. It’s just a track in the rocks. You can drink it
and it’s spring water. If you want, I’ll take you, so stay here. He makes us one of his clouds, the Martin. We just talked about the menu, it’s expensive. Yeah. Realizing it for a month
seems like a long time to me. It’s really far. Everything is relative. It’s near the mountain, the sheep,
it’s near the goats, it’s near the wild boars. It’s at least 10 kilometers from the village. And above all, camping. I smell a trap, Julie. I didn’t want to come,
I felt like I was trapped. Where is my jersey? My God, she’s so cute. She looks a little lonely. We’re going swimming, guys. Yeah, yeah. Give me that. Wait, I have to come to you. I checked everything: water and electricity.
No problem. Whose house does this belong to? To Parisians, but they do
n’t come anymore. They think there are too many people.
Here ? No, in the region. There, they prefer to travel now. They went hunting
in Africa, I think. They don’t have any children. Are these little people yours? No, I only have the small shell
of some of Rousseur’s floors. The others I
inherited for the holidays. You might say you
like kids. That’s what everyone believes. But I too would dream
of going hunting for an interest. I understand you. I have eight children, 28
grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. My God. So,
it often happened to me that I used the excuse that a Breville was sick
to go for a walk in the mountains with my dog. That was the right time.
Here we go ? Moments of calm. Well, I’ll leave you. If you need
anything, please don’t hesitate. You have the grocery store for shopping
in the village and you have the supermarket 20 kilometers away.
All right. Come on, see you soon.
Bye. THANKS. So, you don’t swim? No, no, I don’t want to, you see. This pool is dirty,
there are creatures floating around. It may not be very
transparent, but I spoke to Mr. Martin about it,
he says it is not at all dangerous. It’s easy to say,
he’s not the one bathing. I don’t want anyone to get sick. Julie, stop taking on all the tragedy,
otherwise we’ll never get out of this. Do you realize we’re going to be living
in this shack at the end of the world for a month? I’m mad at Mom,
I’m mad at her to death. Why don’t you say go
to the honor that it is done here? There is room for
me to go and wait. No, that’s not possible. Honor, he dreams of nothing else,
being part of the family. I don’t want him to intrude,
I want to keep my distance. It’s not complicated
as I’m going to put it. You come, you tell me to act like a wolf. Simon, Adrien, be careful, little one. Yes yes. THANKS. We’re going to make a good resolution. We’re going to stop complaining.
All right ? This house is magnificent. It’s a shame Mom isn’t
here because she would have liked it here. Hey, won’t you call him? Why How? Last night I was a little tired. We had a fight. Yes, I heard, yes. You talk to her first, then
pass her to me. Okay. Should I call him at the Opera? I don’t know, try it, yeah. It’s weird, there’s no dial tone. Maybe it’s not plugged in. Yes. What’s going on? Maybe the owners don’t have to
pay. I need to do some reading, I don’t know. No, it’s not okay. You have to call the complaints. But we can’t call
complaints since the phone doesn’t work, don’t say
anything either. We have to go down to the village,
I’m fed up, really, I’m fed up. Calm down, it’s not dramatic. Then we promised each other to stop complaining. Dad, we’re hungry.
Too bad for you. Come on, come on. Do you want some cookies? Why not cookies? No, because the phone is broken. I’ll have to go back to the village.
Yeah, great. We will return to Dakar. Well, make your mistake. If you want, I’ll- Abase you, stay. Wherever we can,
then we the sick. I petisco you, perdo. To you, I cease. Warn this flower.
For what ? What is your soul? When ? When will it be massito. It’s tomorrow. It’s not going well.
It’s not going well. No, no, no, okay, stop. Anna, Anna, Anna. I told you, it’s the same
problem we had before. This flower is a symbol.
Okay? The music is very beautiful.
Okay? But it’s a love story.
I have to believe it. Mr. Bertrand, it’s late,
we need to see you for a moment. Bertrand?
Is he there? Yes, he is there. You have to hesitate, Emma.
All right ? It’s okay, just a little while. Okay? How are you ? Do
you see well? And you ?
Yes. Wow, this is all great.
Yes. Did you find the right message? I didn’t expect to see you so soon. Yes, I came back earlier than expected. That’s good because I
‘m really in deep shit. I don’t know, but yes.
Ah good ? What’s going on?
Well, the movie, Merculé… Isn’t that true?
Well yes. But that’s great. Well, listen, thank you. No, I’m sorry about your movie,
but the great thing is that you ‘ll get to take care of the kids. Frederick went with them to the south,
but he was furious and had to cancel a report. Besides, I don’t know what’s
going on with the phone? I can’t reach him.
Wait, I don’t understand age. But yes, it’s very simple. Since you are free, you will go and pick up
your children in the south and spend a few days with them. Frederick is completely cracking up, poor guy.
This is normal. It’s been four years since he started in
August. He can’t take it anymore.
Sophie, I adore you. I love children. I take them on vacation whenever I can,
but I haven’t planned that at all, so I can’t.
Me neither. I hadn’t planned on working. But that’s how it is
in this business, old man. You have to know how to adapt. You who put me on stage,
you should know that. Sophie, if you can spare
a moment, I owe you… Sorry, excuse me.
No, no, no, no, not at all, Bob. Come, come. I present to you Bertrand Kahn.
Good morning. Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning. Yes, and then people try
to get away without being noticed. That’s it, that’s exactly it. Well, see you later?
Yes, okay. And I’ll bring you the drawings.
Bye. Bye. It’s
great that you’re working with him, because I understand what he’s doing. I agree that I could
n’t miss such an opportunity. I’m not telling you otherwise, Sophie. Come on, I have to go
get my things. So, what about the children? I don’t know,
where do you want me to take them? Are you taking a little trip? Just like that, out of the blue,
but in August, all the hotels are booked up. I’ll never be able to find
legs at the level of the last mother. Why don’t you go spend a few
days with your parents in Brittany? After all, they have a
lovely house that no one takes advantage of. You’re really pumped up. When we were married,
you found it deadly unheard of. I was young and impatient. But I’ve changed, you know. Everyone changes eventually. In any case, what hasn’t changed
is that you never spend holidays with your children anymore.
Every year, it’s a new excuse. Do n’t start, don’t start. It’s not my fault if I
have to work so much. It’s not with the pension
you pay me. And yet,
you earn as much money as I do, if not more. I don’t know how you manage it, it’s
like you’re throwing it out the window. Even when we were together,
you were spending crazy amounts of money on restaurants,
on books that piled up on your desk, not to mention the whims that would
take hold of you in the middle of the night. You decided, I don’t know,
to take pictures of yourself. And the next morning, at dawn,
you rushed out to buy a fortune of equipment. What are you doing tonight? Do
you want us to go there together? You’re really crazy. You say really violent things,
then you act like nothing happened. Do you know how I was? For me, speaking is therapeutic.
It relieves me. Once it’s out, I don’t think about it anymore. Listen, Sophie, 12 years ago,
you were the one who wanted a divorce. You married another man,
you had another child. That’s very good. So, consider that I’m no longer
here to psychoanalyze you for free. Day and night, winter and summer. Come on, come on. It makes me really happy
to see you, you know? Yes, it doesn’t look like it. Then, you’re not going to spend the evening
alone rereading your script. Stop thinking you’re irresistible. What makes you think I’m
going to spend my evening alone? Bastard. Mr. Martin! Damn, the window that’s
open, he must be there. Mr. Martin!
Mr. Martin! It’s better to leave it
for tonight, listen. Come on, let’s go home. Can we go out to dinner? The one in the campaign,
he seemed nice. Excellent idea. This way, we take the opportunity
to make air windows. Do you mind if I
join you a little later? Leonard?
Yes. Why don’t you tell him to
come and have dinner with us? I don’t know, maybe. You can always ask him. Okay.
Can I go? No. Hey, no nonsense. Kids, tonight,
big surprise: restaurant. THANKS. Hello ? Hello madam, yes, I would like to speak
to Sophie Cannes, Bob Edwards’ costume designer. THANKS. Frédéric, excuse me, are
we sitting inside or outside? Wherever you want, no, outside rather. The nicest table.
Well, okay. Hello ? They’re all already gone. Well, very well, thank you. I am very worried. Listen, don’t start panicking. But where have they gone? Do you want to explain to me where they went? You realize they
might have had an accident. And meanwhile, we are here,
peacefully, at the restaurant. Something must be done. No, but actually, your Mr.
Martin must have taken them home. They’re all on the road, no one
can answer the phone, that’s all. Do you think so?
Obviously. Come on, calm down,
taste this delicious mess. We’ll call back in a quarter of an hour. I love it when you’re around,
because everything always seems simple. Come on. He ‘s good.
Good. So, tell me about your daughter,
what happened? The Italian co-producer
withdrew from the deal. Oh, at the last moment? Yes. Watch out, he broke his
Achilles tendon playing tennis. So what? So in the hospital,
he had time to read the script, then he must have found that the role reserved for
his girlfriend was not important enough. That’s perfect, he thought you were useless. We see you getting rid of her. I’m not telling you otherwise. Simply, we were forced
to revise the budget downwards. Now we will shoot
the interiors in Bulgaria. And the exteriors?
THANKS. The exteriors, no, that doesn’t change.
It will be filmed in Bordeaux. It puts the September-October film back on.
That’s better, right? In October, the light will be magnificent. Your film will win. Yes, no, but you’re probably right. I just wish I could have
filmed now. It would have…
It would have taken my mind off things. For what ?
What’s wrong? It could get better. I told you about this girl, Odile,
whom I met a few months ago. Odile. Yes, Odile, you know, she came to
do an internship in production, a postgraduate student. Shiny, very shiny.
Beautiful ? Yes, very cute. Very cute, another beautiful charm,
little freckles, cute. Laughter from the eyes, laughter in a mess. Do
you know her? You’ve told me about it at least 10 times. Excuse me. So, does the young lady have a problem? No, but miss, she’s 24 years old. Do
you understand? She drags me to
nightclubs until 3:00 in the morning. She makes me dance
because it makes me lose weight. She organizes dinners
with her boyfriends. Kids the same age,
you can imagine, that amuses me. And as soon as she sees you pick up a book,
she calls you a pantyhose. Yes, that’s absolutely it. Do you realize that I have to lock
myself in the bathroom to read in peace?
No. No, but yes. Me, you know, in the evening, if I haven’t
read a chapter, I can’t fall asleep. You remember me, you know? Well yes, well yes, it’s true. Of course, I’m not a timothy. So, I’m hiding, what. My poor Bertrand, is your life hell? Minouche, what are you doing here? I’m having a little nightmare. Come on, come on, come on,
come on and tell me, come on. Come see your grandpa. What’s up? I like I don’t see
that mom isn’t here. Me neither. Come on,
we should be used to it, right? It still doesn’t respond. I’m starting to panic here. You need to call the police.
Stop. But come on, Bertrand, we’re not going to
stay here doing nothing like this. I’m going to die of anxiety. There it is, my heart is
starting to beat. Luckily, I must say. No, no, but to beat in any way.
Didn’t I tell you? I get my heart racing
now when I’m anxious. I went to see a cardiologist,
he did a lot of tests, everything is normal, he doesn’t understand where it comes from. Still, there are cocoons. Look, feel, feel. You see, I’m not lying to you, you feel? Suddenly, I don’t feel anything at all.
Ah good ? I don’t feel anything. You’re doing great, as usual,
you’re doing perfectly fine. You are the pretty little fragile reed
that bends in the storm, but never breaks. And I am the miserable oak,
so I must go. Where? We’ll see what’s going on over there,
in your lost place, in Saint-Saturnin. NOW ?
Obviously, now. If I stay in Paris,
you’ll call me every five minutes to give me
your health report. So, we might as well leave right away. I adore you. You adore me.
Not for you, I do it. You know, it’s for my children. I have great confidence in Frédéric,
but now you’re starting to panic me with your ideas of catastrophe. Please. Dad ? Good morning. Good morning. What are you doing here? Listen, your mother was worried, so
I drove all night, then in the village, I woke up poor
Mr. Martin, here I am. And you’re going to stay with us? The idea would be to go
to Brittany to stay with grandpa, grandma and your brother for a few days. In Brittany, now?
Yes. I have a few days of vacation, we
could go on a nice little trip. We could go visit
churches, museums. It’s like when you were little. Yes, that would be great. We can have long
conversations about what you are passionate about. Listen, it’s true, in Paris,
we only ever see each other briefly. Yes of course. Not awake at all. We didn’t wake him up at all. I ask you to be enthusiastic,
but for my projects. So, we’re going to prepare breakfast. Go ahead, I’m coming. Shit, shit, shit. Oh fuck. Hi Frederic. Bertrand, what are you doing here? Listen, you know,
Sophie hasn’t heard anything, but no, but I was worried.
Robin, do you know me? She’s terrible at that. Really. How are you ? Listen, it’s okay.
Yes, I’m a little sleepy. How are you. How are you, my children? Everything is going very well, as usual. But this year,
I’m the one who’s cracking up a little. Ah good ?
Yes. I think I’m a little tired
of playing camp counselor. What are you looking for?
A coffee. A coffee. And you were able to quit your job. You know, it was him who left me. Filming has been postponed, so I’m
not shooting until September. That’s not so much. That way you’ll be able to
take care of your worlds a little. Yes. You’re going to have Simon trained right now. Ah good ? This pneumonia is now
just a bad memory. He might even have gained a little weight. He eats in the morning, it’s incredible. There is sport. There, we might need to
motivate him a little because he’s the type to spend four hours
a day with his nose in a book. He’s not your son for nothing. Yes of course. Is he in Daule?
Is he in Daule? Is he in Daule? Is he in Daule? Is he in Daule?
Yes, he is in Daule. It’s not possible,
we’ve been changing all day. Is he in Daule in Brittany?
No, it is in Daule in the Jura. Dad, actually, friends. No way, darling. Not during digestion. So first you make your
beds and clear your room. All right.
And how do we do it for the phones? Oh well, we’re going to the village,
we’re going to see that with Mr. Martin. Can I come with you? Yeah, you’ll help me with the shopping. Okay, I’ll get my bag. He will wait for me if I stay here. No, no, no.
No, no. No, no, no.
No, no, no. No, no, no, no, no, If you’re tired,
you sit on the first floor. Simon, maybe your father has moved in? Adrien, you take a look
at the little ones, I really don’t want them walking around
the country barefoot before the stopover. Do we agree?
We agree. But first, you tidy the table and
the kitchen for me, I want everything to be spotless anyway.
Okay. Well, take the jams. Fredo. Yeah, Julot. I’d rather you did
n’t tell Dad about Leonardo. For what ? He’s coming especially to see us and I
‘m spending the day with a friend, so he wouldn’t be happy. You
always seem to walk with big clogs, but ultimately,
you’re a really delicate girl. Because lying to your father to avoid
hurting his feelings is really cute. I warned them about the phone. They will come and fix it soon.
Ah. Well, I’m going.
See you tonight. Good morning.
And how do you show up? Well, on the motorbike, he’s the one who brings me back.
Ah, thank you. And then I had your wife too. I was just going to your place for tea. I think it’s too late. From what she told me,
she was going to work. Don’t worry, I warned her about everything. And then she
wishes you a good day. Yes. Poor thing, it must be hard for her
to stay in Paris in this heat. Do you believe? It must be a
wasted life as she holds on to it. That’s it, that’s me, one of the best. I just came back against the game
and the only stain on their… It was…
It’s the possibility of finding them again. That, on the other hand, at home, even
if it’s a bit too much, I don’t feel… There are too many breasts.
Ah good ? All right.
There are too many children, we’ll reduce it. No. How are you ? Thomas, did you just swim?
No, just now. Look, look. Look, we have hair
on the Espelot without breathing. Well done. Hey,
this water is disgusting, isn’t it? It doesn’t matter, they’re leaves. Anyway, Frederic,
he said we could swim. It’s like a river. Did
Frederick say that? Mmm-hmm.
Okay, let’s go. Come on.
Come on. Come on.
Come on. It’s dad. Do you want me to buy some gum? Of course, plenty. Whoa, barefoot, put on a sandal.
This is not going well at all. Come on, let’s get the sandals, quickly. We are looking for sandals. Now we’re playing a game. Whoever gets the sandal first is the one who gets the sandal. Attention. How are you ? How are you. I’m shopping for
something to support a seat. Do you want me to help you?
No, there are boys. Simon, Adrien, with me. To the kitchen. Are you taking a look at the little ones?
Yes, yes, of course. Baby, did you
put on sunscreen? No, then quickly, quickly,
you go out and you linger once everywhere. Leave it the same. Fanny. Do
you want me to help you, Fanny? Yeah, I’d like to. Come here, come my cushion, come. Here, come here. Life of the French under occupation. It’s good ?
Yes, that’s good. It’s exciting.
Not very funny, but it’s exciting. What’s it about? It would take a bit of time to explain. I’m reading this because my next film takes
place during the war, so I’m trying to research
the history of that period, you know? Do you like books? Here, wait. Come here. Do you like it? Yes, but I prefer I still prefer to
fill the bed because I don’t have it very quickly yet. You read quite well, though. Eh
? Yes.
No ? Yes, but I still prefer to have them
read to me. So, Mom, does she read to you? Not often, because she
‘s always busy. Yes.
I have to go quietly. Yes, that’s normal. Here, Julie, she was like you. She loved books.
Yes. It would have been like you,
she was like you. She preferred that I tell her.
You see? So, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty
, Snow White, all that. You told him that to put him to sleep,
you understand? Then, sometimes,
I even invented stories for him. So. Which one did she prefer? You know, there were plenty of them. There was one who liked him. It’s the nice little
crocodile who died in spite of himself. No.
You don’t know that? Can you tell it? I don’t know if I’ll
remember it, it was a long time ago. Come on, please.
The little crocodile who bit in spite of himself. Yeah. Juliette should be
home by this time. Don’t worry,
your daughter is very independent, but we can trust her.
Come on, he’s gone. THANKS.
Calm. That’s it. It’s worse than it was death. I’ll give you
some more coal. Hold. I’ll pour you a little glass
of wine, I’ll do it. You’re doing pretty
well for Alain Tello. I was a scooter when
I was little. It leaves traces. It wasn’t Mom, it was Julie. Wait, I’ll talk to him. Wait, she hung up on him,
she said we should n’t wait for her for dinner. How is she
going to get home now? Don’t worry,
his friends brought me some. There’s a baby now. So, Marc, it’s true. What has the strength
to live longer with your children? We end up not even
seeing each other growing up. The next day there was the
terrible Aurage, the paint came off and the castle was all white again. This is also why the
Evening Visitors’ castle looks so new in Carnet’s film. So obviously now
everyone is saying this tour is great because the story takes place
in the Middle Ages and in the Middle Ages castles were new, of course. There, in fact, it was completely by chance. Absolutely, yes. You know, that’s what cinema is all about. You have to be able to use
an unforeseen event, despite all the choices you may have made
in preparing your film. And at what age did you want to
come, but you’re on stage? I don’t think I ever
wanted to do anything else, you know. In class, I was
pretty stupid anyway. Ah good ? You always have your nose
buried in a book. I’m making up for lost time. At the time, I was going to school
to go to the movies, so you know. You mustn’t
say this in front of Simon. He already has so much admiration for you. He’ll want to imitate you. But I don’t ask for anything better. I could take you on as my assistant. Eh
? What, my son? Click, it’s the boy’s eyelid. I don’t understand anything,
the vet will say. No, me neither, the doctor will say. That’s it, it’s over. Will you ally us with another one tomorrow? Seventeen, tomorrow I’ll be gone. Yeah, that’s true, it’s a shame.
It’s a shame. Come on, let’s go to bed. Come on, come on. You go to sleep too. You know, tomorrow is my birthday.
Ah good ? I wish you would come back. We’ll see, I don’t know, you know. Because you see, Simon, Julie, finally,
I would like everyone to be able to come back to you.
Yes, I understand. Listen, I’ll see, I’ll try. Are
you sleeping? All right.
Okay, give me a kiss. How are you, darling? Did you have a good day? Yes, great. What did you do then? We were going to swim in a river. Ah good ? Where?
I don’t know. Pardon. Which village was it near? I don’t know. It still feels like we’re in class. I’m not an encyclopedic dictionary, I just enjoy life, that’s all.
Good evening. It’s good. Here, could you pass me a little one?
Yes of course. You know, you shouldn’t be
upset about Julie. Right now she’s
like that, even with me. Then it’s the age when kids are
always full of themselves. She was so I was really
confident when she was little. But now she’s hiding everything from me. Maybe because you
talk to her like a child. But she is 16 years old. She’s almost a woman. Finally, do you think she has a boyfriend? Certainly.
Hey, I read it like it is. And you know him? Actually, yes. Ah good ?
So what? He is…
He is very good. He doesn’t do drugs, he says hello,
he lives with his parents. And he’s okay, a good-looking guy, bro. That’s the ideal kind of thing. It doesn’t fly.
He is 19 years old. His name is Leonard.
He is in math specialization. Not bad. That way, you can be like all
fathers, proud and flattered that your own daughter
is the object of attention from such a charming boy. Yes, no, but it’s true that I would have
preferred that she had told me about it herself. I can’t admit
that she could have found anything worse. She’s all upset because right
now she can’t see him, is that it? It’s not How so? Because actually, she sees it.
Ah good ? He came to settle
in the campsite just below. Ah good ?
No kidding? So that’s why she’s all
upset because tomorrow you’re leaving. That’s all.
Yes, I see. And Sophie, does she know? No. Well, she knows Leonard,
but I don’t know who he is there. But I didn’t know anything about it either.
I learned this when I arrived. Right now,
they’re giving out confidences drop by drop, Julie. Ultimately, my travel plan doesn’t
suit anyone. Julie is going to be mad at me
for two weeks. Simon and Adrien are going to miss the swimming pool. And then your daughter Fanny,
we’re going to spend time as brothers and sisters during her birthday. Why don’t you stay with me? That way, we both look after
the kids. I don’t know if psychologically… Stop, don’t ask yourself so many questions. Our children, what do they want? It’s about staying together
during the holidays. And then, two pairs,
that comes to you from the sea. Yes, Sophie heard that, old man. In my opinion, well, she heard. That works ? I don’t know. Ah, finally. You know it’s good to hear you? How are you my love? I’m okay, I’m a little tired. We have a tiring day. Then I start to get a little nervous. It will be ready on time.
Not like usual. Good morning. Well, here, it’s rolling. I made a new friend. Who is that? Bertrand. We decided to spend
our vacation together. Are you kidding?
But not at all, listen. I don’t have the wife,
so I’ll take the husband, anyway. The ex-husband.
Listen, stop there, Frederic. I’m tired and it… It doesn’t make me laugh. How long will he stay? SO ? Well, she’s completely freaked out because she
thinks she’s at the center of the debate without being able to attend. That’s Sophie, right. She is jealous and possessive
while demanding all the freedom for herself. And by the way,
why did you split up? It’s complicated. You didn’t talk about it? Yes, a little, but I would have liked to
have your version of events. It’s far away now. It’s far away, as if lost
in childhood memories. Well, it’s far away. It’s painful though.
That’s still burning. We loved each other, I admired him. I still admire him,
a crazy talent. At that time,
she was terribly self-centered and anxious, and I
couldn’t do anything. I couldn’t do anything. I needed too much help myself. Apparently, you’re
tougher than me. Apparently only. Everything always revolves around her,
her fatigue, her job, her constant stress. There is never room for anything or
anyone. Sometimes it’s heavy. Yes. Exactly, now
it’s your problem. Hello kids.
Welcome to eat. You’re making a face,
what’s going on? You don’t look fired. I apologize, I have to go pack
my suitcase. Wait, wait. Your father and I have something
very important to tell you. No, no, no, no, no, no, go ahead.
What’s at the end? You’re annoying. Although adults are
stupid and narrow-minded beings, my dear Julie, we have nevertheless noticed that all of them,
for different reasons, have no desire to
leave you for the holidays. As a result,
your father decided… To?
To stay with us. And there you have it.
So we’re not leaving anymore? This is awesome.
THANKS. This is awesome.
This is awesome. That’s good, madam.
It’s good. Leave me your arm.
This is awesome. I’ll have some
coffee for that price. For what ? Right away ? Did he tell you out of the
blue like that? Yes, but I’m not going to let that happen. Dragging this out to the industrial tribunal
will cost him dearly. He really takes it for a trick. I know he wants to get rid
of me because he screwed an intern. It took him 20 years, he’s crazy about her,
he wants to hire her as his assistant. Well, of course, he’s been looking for every
excuse for a month to fire me. Crazy professional, no, but I’m dreaming. You don’t know what he does?
No. He hides the files and then accuses
me of losing them. This guy is sick. Can I warn you about that, please? Yet he is a very well-known lawyer. He’s a dirty old man, yeah. Always
flirting with his assistants. I’ve been working for him for 5 years and
I know his game, but now he’s going to pay, I can tell you that. Sorry, excuse me. Why don’t you go on
vacation for a few days? To recharge your batteries. Afterwards, you will have more
strength to fight. Well, at least you want me to go? My daughter is having fun with yours and I do
n’t want to leave alone. Go join them. The house is big,
Frédéric and Bertrand are alone to take care of the children. You could give them a hand. Sophie, that’s a great idea. Provence, that’s all they
do to me at the moment. But you know, I think about it,
I have my friends too. Agnes and Paul. Paul, the math teacher with glasses. Mind you, I can always go to their house,
if you think that bothers Frederic. Why do you want him to be bothered?
On the contrary, he will be delighted. And then Bertrand is a little
depressed at the moment. You can keep him company. With your permission? With my blessing. Sophie, it’s Christmas. It’s me. How are you, sweetheart? How are you, sweetheart? How are you, sweetheart?
How are you, sweetheart? How are you, sweetheart?
Easy on my hat, finally. How are you, my love? You see, I’ve been taking sleeping pills
for years, otherwise I can’t sleep. You’ll tell me, it becomes a drug. I know, but I have to. Especially right now,
with all my work worries. I told you
you got fired, right? Anyway, anyway. So,
as I was afraid of missing the station, I asked the guy who shared my
compartment, a handsome guy, 1.90 meters, superb,
he woke me up just before a wine. But somewhere, you know me,
I didn’t have confidence, which meant that I slept very badly. Are you coming? Can I have a hand, Dad?
Mmm-hmm. Well, if we went for a
morning dip in the pool, would that wake us up? Ah, yeah, great. I put on my swimsuit,
I’ll be there in a second. Mom, can I come with you? Of course, my dear, come on. Julie, you’re going to help me because I have some…
But come on. You’re going to help me, I brought four
or five, I don’t know which one to put. None.
Frederick. We’ll see, she’s really good.
Yeah ? Yeah, she’s super hot.
I’ll deny you. Yes. There is a rat there. There’s a rat there. Yes, indeed, there is a problem. There’s a rat there, yes. It doesn’t matter,
we’ll fish it for lunch. No Bertrand, stop
because I felt unwell. Please, have a little composure. This unfortunate beast is
perfectly harmless. We’ll bury him and that’s it. We’re not going to come
into water that rots rats. They rot the rats,
right away the big words. A rat, a rat, a rat,
it is perfectly harmless. Look at this. This little girl is charming,
but not at all. We’re going to get viruses. We just have to add more chlorine. You’re crazy, this is going to
give us allergies. Just add chlorine. What are we going to do then? We eat carrots, we eat them. We eat carrots, we eat them. Good morning.
Good morning. There are so many of you. My darling, you are saving our lives. You can’t know the origin
of a film, but how? One hour.
I’m going to the pool, this way. You know we saw a rat from this stadium?
I’ll show you. No.
Like that. But you don’t want to know about things
I got into the pool? I can’t know. The light wind is
not blowing very hard. We notice that we can perhaps
bathe with everyone. Yes of course. Paul-honey, can we
get out of the deck chairs? I want you to make me tidy up. There may
not be enough for everyone. Others can sit
on towels on board. Dad, do you mind if I
put you in this company? We make friends in the village. That will probably give you
a little more space. Sure, dear, go ahead.
THANKS. See you tonight.
That’s it, just now. Come on. You’re all tanned. Let’s say, between us, the story of the rat.
Are you wet now? How much did your sister give you
to put him in the pool? But nothing, I’m not responsible. Well, don’t take me for a fool
, that rat was full of energy. So, he didn’t commit suicide, after all.
The diaper? Well, it’s Julie. That’s all, she was freaking out about
spending the day at home. I found the rat. The money comes in drops.
Is this racketeering? Oh, otherwise I’ll tell your father everything. Oh, that’s all? There you have been had again. It’s a friend’s prize,
it’s between brother and sister. You have to train well. What if we could
treat ourselves to a little tennis game with that? At the Luberon Hotel? For example, I would put the companion. Yes. I can’t. Come on, there you go.
Yes, it does. Bertrand surprises me. He surprises me, he hides his juice. Fishing. Fishing. So. No, but…
Nathan. So. And there you have it. And there we have it, in the bud.
How is that? You have to play with the energy of despair. I feel like I’m going to die. I fight on all
bases, you understand? While you have your whole life ahead of you. I can’t take it anymore. They’re really chilled out,
aren’t they, his girl? Already declared that a How does
everyone know well? It’s called the banking room. The banking hall
of Saint-Vincent-de-Mauve. It’s good.
This will be fine. But this time,
I intend to see you again. You see, one centimeter for Dad,
one centimeter for Frederic. One more centimeter for Dad,
one more centimeter for Frédéric. You’ll both be proud
of me. It’s okay, great. One centimeter for Dad,
one I’ll put for Frederic. Like this, I’ll put one centimeter for dad,
one centimeter for Frédéric, that’ll be some nice cheeks. What made you read it?
Hello everyone. How are you ?
Hi. What are you doing outside?
What’s going on? That is, there was a little problem. But no, nothing too serious, I think.
What kind? This is Fanny.
She is in the hospital. What ?
She fell. The children were playing near
the pool and she slipped. Well, we’re good. But we couldn’t warn you. We didn’t know where you were. It’s good. It’s all about my skin. Were you scared? It’s the accident, the stupid accident. The children wanted to
dive off the top of the wall. The doctor arrives. Hello Sir.
Hello Sir. So, your daughter… Yes, wait,
I’m not the dad, it’s him. Excuse me, there are
so many people here. I’m having trouble finding her again. The mother is not here, I think.
It’s me. I mean, I’m the one presenting it. So I was saying your daughter broke down. Lorin Duhce, the wrong, the upper third. So.
Bal will keep the cast on
for three weeks. It’s not… It’s a little annoying,
but it doesn’t matter. Yes. Yes, I’ll hold you in my arms, my darling. My little love baby. I miss you, you know? I miss you a lot. Give me your dad again. Hello ? You should put her to bed
, she looks exhausted. Look, I don’t know, I just feel so
lost right now, it’s… It’s hard being away from you. Yes I know. We’ll talk about it later. We remember. What’s wrong?
Hold. Well, well, this would do you good. Go ahead. It will get better. I keep telling myself it’s not a big deal,
but with children, we worry so much. You’re lucky you don’t have to go through that. Luck? No, I don’t think so.
I love children. And my real regret
is not having one. How much do you have?
Three. You ? Oh boy. No wonder.
Women are admirable. They work, they have husbands,
sometimes lovers, children. And sometimes even a lot of talent. They are so admirable
that you preferred to avoid them? Let’s just say I was afraid I would
n’t be up to it. You know, my mother was a
terrifyingly perfect woman. At the height of her career as a pianist,
she remained a perfect wife and mother , a pampered friend
who hosted lavish dinner parties. She was even seductive. With her, life seemed like a dream. Besides, I never got over it. Okay, let’s pack our bags. The suitcases? Well yes, we’re going to see your daughter. But… Well, listen,
set rehearsals don’t start again until Wednesday. Your assistant stayed there to supervise
the execution of the costumes and we can perfectly finish
our work in Provence. And the sets? Don’t look for reasons
not to leave, bad mother. Oh, oh God Awesome. Complete the sentence: The man
from Gros Magnon knows how to… Make fire.
It’s very witchy. It was Mathilde who thought of it.
That’s what they say. Fuck. Can you, Simon? Well done, always a vest. Simon, you can do the other side,
because it gives me a little stir every time, we’ll have it like that. Be careful, Adrien,
I’m soaked now. Give it to me, big guy.
There he soaks. How many glasses could she
fill with two watering cans? Who is it? I don’t know, maybe it’s
the mailman. Maybe my door is Mom’s. Maybe, but how many
with two watering cans? 200. 200. There
are maybe three watering cans. Mom ! Cuckoo ! Hello, my love. My baby, mine. Let me see this cast. Does
it hurt? No.
This is for my love. Here are your presents. This and that. And the rest is for Laetitia.
Where is she? She is here.
Wait, come get it for me. What are you doing here? Surprise. That’s great, Thomas.
How are you ? You sent me?
Hello, hello sweetie. Good morning my love. Here are your presents.
How are you ? I just saw you.
THANKS. How are you ?
You had a great… Thank you. It’s good. My big boy.
How are you ? How are you.
Hello Mrs. Here, your presents are over there.
Bob has them. Hello my soup.
Good morning. How nice to see you.
How beautiful it is here. Did you see that?
It’s beautiful. Who was where?
Bob. Was he on stage? Hello, Chantal.
Good morning. It’s me. I am great. Yeah ? I didn’t wear a ribbon,
but I’m such a teenager. Here, Celia, this is for me, it suits her.
Where is she? She is in the village with her friends.
At this time? Mom.
Yes, I’m coming. I already know this tradition. Here, give this to your sister. A little behind the kitchen.
Come on, let’s watch the feeds. I will help you.
How’s it going, family? It’s happening.
Yes, it’s going really well. Well, really?
Yes. Yes, beautiful. Are you going to try
to take a vacation? Do you like her? We’re going to undo it. It’s not too big. You see?
It’s a sin. She made beautiful costumes. I heard you
made some nice costumes. It’s Bob who I don’t know.
THANKS. Anyone want something to drink? No, no, no, no, thank you. I’m happy to, Frederic. What do you propose? Go to the fridge
for what you need. Would you like a little pastaga?
I’d like to. It’s going well, so… Yes, we’re in our second act. We’ll go dancing. Why dance? We need to work a little
more with intercourse. Why can we rinse it?
For what ? Why move forward? We need to work a little
more with intercourse. Why can we rinse it?
For what ? For what ?
For what ? For what ? Does
everyone eat lunch here? Why not ?
We are divinely well here. Go shopping in the village. Do you want me to come with you? No, don’t worry, I’ll
just have some meat. On the other hand, the god of Avray. It was very good. I thought to myself, How are you,
Sophie, are you happy? It’s okay first. If you remake the world while I
‘m not here, you can give me a little summary. Frederic, don’t you want to
try to bring Julie back to me? I’d be happy
to see her, though. Okay. He’s leaving. Is
he leaving? Julie? Do you know Julie? Julie? Julie? Julie? Sorry to bother you, but your mother just showed up unexpectedly. So of course,
he’s a little surprised not to see you. Oh yeah.
And we’re nothing here? Uh… Vince. Yeah. All right.
What’s going on with Leonard? Let me introduce you to Joëlle. My art was broken a month ago. Hi. Hi. And can we know why
we are not aware? I think I passed by there,
I was asking permission. Okay, then let’s go. So, where do I meet you?
I don’t know. I’ll leave you a note. Okay. See you later. He wrote to himself, “Hey,
where is it?” That’s clever. What is he doing? Julie, I have a question for you. What does this boy do for a living? Stuff. What do you mean, stuff?
How old is he? 24 years old. Is he working? Is he studying? No, he’s unemployed
like everyone else. How many questions like that are they going to ask me
? Julie, you’ll leave for me
sometime later, please. When I think that you abandoned
Leonard for a zombie like that, your mother, she’s going to go crazy
when she finds out about this. Stop bothering me with Leonard,
he’s a loser, Leonard, he’s a weakling. He doesn’t know what he wants, he spends his
time diving into his books. This guy forgot to live. I don’t give a damn about Leonardo,
I don’t like him anymore, I never did. Good. Wait, you’ll excuse me. I have a race to run,
I’ll only need two seconds. Where are you going? I’m leaving, I don’t want to see you anymore,
I don’t want to see anyone anymore. Stop, I don’t need to see anyone. Stop it now, Julie, calm down,
get back in that car right now. Leave me alone. Okay, get lost.
And what do I tell your parents? Come on. I can’t.
I’m too broke, sweetie. It’s help. Let’s catch some
sun, baby. Me, go, come. I’m not going to put you
in the shade, baby. Go ahead, that’s what’s there, the others. It’s an ear box. This will pay off for you. And that must have sunk me. Stop. Can you be at
fault if not for knocking over? I’m going to be as fat as a fry.
No, no. Really, Laetitia. No, no, no.
No. No.
No. No. You should have come to the theater, right? No, it’s really broken. Frédéric, Paul, Agnès’ husband, underwent
a very serious operation last year. He had an organ removed. Have you seen what
can already be removed? What can be taken away from you
that is not essential to life? A visit?
I don’t know. Hey, intellectuals,
I’m looking for the name of an organ. Which organ? I don’t know, an organ that can be
removed from you that isn’t essential to life? I don’t know, the little gigounette. Oh yeah, I know, that’s it, the spleen. So, you can imagine,
this Hufflepuff no longer has a rat. It’s horrible, isn’t it? It was at the Aix-
en-Provence Festival in 1980. Yes, it was staged by La Véry. Do
you remember, Sophie? We saw that together.
Huh, you don’t remember? Yes, it was Ah, it was good. The hearts at the beginning of Act 3
in the penalty shootout, I think we had never seen that before. And Sylvie, at that moment,
was beautiful. She still had a voice, but it was sublime. But she wanted to tackle
the big repertoire roles at a much too young age, and then she completely broke down. Mom, Mom. Besides, last year
I auditioned her, she was her own man. It was really something else. This system is cruel. We discover a talent,
we squeeze it like an orange and then we throw away the ropes immediately.
It’s… But stop, my dear,
you see It’s good that I’m talking to you. You haven’t seen your daughter for 10 days, you
robbed her. Are you waiting until she’s in a coma
to take care of her? But Fanny is doing very well and I
played with her all afternoon. So you see, my dear,
Mom is a great artist, but she has a stopwatch instead of a heart. So, kids, it’s four hours
a week and not a minute more. The rest of the time
she needs it for her creation and then to participate in
brilliant conversations. Where we, poor mortals,
have no place. That is to say, you understood correctly.
No, you shut up and lie. My heart hurts. Do you want to take my place, Frederic? I’ll take care of the little one. Oh no, I have nothing to say about the opera. What are you looking for? You want us to argue in front of
everyone, is that it? I want you to respond to your
children when they talk to you. They never see them, so when you
‘re there, you take care of them a little. Especially when they are hurt,
when they need you. You’re going to blame me again for working
while you take care of the children, aren’t you? But boss, my old boss,
it’s not me who’s stopping you. Listen, stop there, stop. Also, if you take care of the children badly. The little girl had this accident
because you weren’t there. Was she under
your girlfriend’s surveillance? Yes, it’s true, it’s
entirely my fault. I never leave the children for
a whole day without saying where I am. Even when I’m working, I
can still be reached. Your show is really bad. I’m sorry, I’m
not in the Oscar race. I’m trying to explain myself to my wife. If you don’t mind. He ‘s too precious. So, here are the tears. She’s the good one
and naturally, I ‘m the big bad guy. Stop. Stop. We’ll get her. No, right now she’s driving me crazy. Go ahead, you. Do it for the kids. Come on, don’t get
into such a state. You don’t realize. I was so
happy to see the children. He ruins everything, they always ruin everything. He may not be the only culprit. Eh ? You have many good qualities, but
it’s not always easy to live with you.
I know what I’m talking about. It wasn’t the same for us,
we were so young. No. No, it’s curious, there are details
where you haven’t changed at all. This way of neglecting
those who are most dear. You know that since you arrived,
I’ve been watching you and Frédéric. If you barely look at him,
you only talk to him for small talk, you’re not making any effort. Does he do it, perhaps? You come to see him,
he’s waiting for you to be interested in him, not in Bob, me, or anything else. I see him all year round, Frederic. That’s no reason to treat him
like an object or like the babysitter in What’s Going On, Son?
I’m getting on my nerves. This way he has of always watching for
the slightest misstep with my children. He’s rebelling there. He calls you. Look at it, listen to it,
it’s not a piece of furniture. He too exists, with his problems. And he loves you. He loves you.
He needs you to admire him. It’s only in your eyes that he can
feel that he is an admirable man. If you despise it, it no longer exists. And he dies. I admired you enormously. That didn’t stop us from breaking up. You didn’t admire me in every way. What does that mean?
You cheated on me, Sophie. That means you had sex with
someone else, so at least on that level, I wasn’t. That’s admirable. It was a small
adventure of nothing at all. You’re the one who made a big deal out of it. You see, that’s your fault. That’s it. You decide for yourself how much
you do to others. You make love to another man,
you decide it’s not a big deal. But imagine that for me,
it was a disaster. It’s a disaster.
The world has collapsed. I felt abandoned, rejected. You cheated on me, you loved me more. It was serious, you know. It was serious. I know I hurt you a lot. But I paid dearly for it, you know. Because afterward, I… I was desperate to live without you. Have you met Frederic? Yes.
He was attentive, reassuring, available. And then, that he met your life
is much better, admit it. He gave me back my taste for life, yes. He is strong. A bit macho, you must like that. No, but yes. I’m the big brother,
he’s the man, the real one. But I still miss the time
when you and I were married. Especially when I see you. It’s your youth you
miss, you know. It will never happen again, that’s over. In the meantime, you’re ruining
your relationship with Frederic with some kind of
stupid, irrelevant nostalgia. You’re with him without being him, so how do
you expect him not to feel that? I talked to him a lot
before you arrived, you know. A lot. He’s a very good guy, Frederic. But really very good. He loves you, he adores our children. He takes much better care of them than you do. It must be recognized. But I have no
desire for you to leave him. But for some time now,
he hasn’t been the same. He is much less nice to me. But you realize
how you treat him. It’s because I’m tired. I’m tired all the time. It’s good to talk with you. I think about you often, you know. I miss you. What are you saying? You ask me why. It’s your problem, it’s now. I don’t have any more puppets. I can’t manipulate myself
with your pretty fingers anymore. Damage. I’ve made myself suffer too much. I could never love
you like I used to. That’s all over. Come on, we’ll fall there.
Come on, we’ll fall there. Come on.
Come on. Come on.
Come on. Do you want to talk? For what ? Do we still have something to tell you? Listen, Frederic, stop being too godly. You’d think you might take
some pleasure in persecuting me. Are you the one who manages
to make me look like an idiot all day long around Bertrand and your director? And I’m the one who persecutes you? When you’ve overcome your paranoia,
we can resume the dialogue. In the meantime, good night,
I’m going to sleep in the gym. You stay here.
Stop, you’re hurting me. Stop. I’m warning her, you go through that door,
I’m leaving this house, you’ll never see me again in your life and you can
deal with the kids, okay? I don’t think anything good of your threats. I’m fed up. Do
you want to leave? Go on, get out of here.
Get out of here. Come on, put your bags in.
Let’s start. Come on, get out of here. Stop it, you’re going to wake
everyone up now. What are you
waiting for to get the hell out of here? You won’t choose it,
you’ll endure it. That you’re going to kill me,
that you’re going to drive me crazy. Stop, stop.
Stop. Stop.
Stop. Stop.
Stop. Please . Please
. Please . Please
. Please .
I’m stopping you. Stop.
Stop. Stop.
Stop. Stop.
Stop. What’s going on? Go back to bed. We have to do something, we
have to call the cops, we have to call a doctor. The kids are gone, damn it. Come on children, come on. I was scared, he’s crazy. Go back to bed, children. Okay, okay, okay, okay, again, this is not good. Wait until tonight,
you’ll sleep in my room. It’s better for me. I’m going to sleep in the living room. Come on, come on. Wait. Sit there. It’ll be OK ? Do you want something to sleep on?
Yes, I would like to. You know me, I just
had it, it’s bad. Here, you’re going to sleep now. Like that. Ouch, big guy. How are you ? No. Come on. Stay. No, but no. A little bit. Let go of me.
Let go of me. Let go of me.
Let go of me. What’s wrong? I’d like to give you a hug, Mom. It’s all going to be okay,
my darling, I don’t know. Do you think so? Of course. It’s often when we fight really
hard, it’s because we love each other very much. Like me and Simon? There you go, it’s the same. Come on, let’s go see mom. Sophie. Fanny wants to see you. Come on, my darling. Can I sleep with you? If you want. Excuse us, Fanny.
Sorry for scaring you so much. We won’t do it again.
It’s a promise. Are you leaving? No, I’m going to get some croissants.
Take me back. I’ll be right back. Take me with you. Shh, don’t talk so loud,
you’ll wake her up, Mom. Take me back with you, Dad. So come on. I’m in my pajamas. That ‘s not a big deal. I threw you a lot of clothes. You’ll see, we’ll be
like seeing each other again. Like goodbyes. Do
you believe me? Why are you going so fast, Dad? Because we’re racing, baby. Paris, the map,
we’ll win by two seconds. I don’t like running, I’m scared. I would like you to hold my hand. Be brave, Fanny. We’ll lose him, we’ll win. And what will we win? I don’t know. I don’t know. Don’t be an idiot, Frederic. Don’t be an idiot. I’m not being stupid,
I’m going to the bakery. At the bakery?
With your luggage? I can’t take it anymore.
I have to get out of here. There is no other solution. Is that the little one? Child abduction,
is that what it’s all about? It was your family
who wanted to come with me. At least that proves that she loves me. Sophie loves you too, animal. Stop acting
like a child around her. You look like the oldest kid.
Shit. You don’t understand, it’s his fault. It’s always all
about his fucking job. It makes me feel completely infantilized. I’m here, straining, moaning, and
begging like a dog. Plus, it’s the world upside down because
she’s the one living a guy’s life and I’m
the aggressive, jealous girl. How are you ?
Why do you continue? I don’t know.
Yes. I feel like a
locomotive without a driver. I charge forward, I feel like it’s going to go
off the rails and I go straight there. Do you know what you’re doing? You are sounding
the alarm. This is what you are doing. You just have to act like a
woman, old man. There you have it, you free yourself
from the domestic empire. That’s all. The emancipation of new pairs
is a good movement to create. I swear you won’t be
the only one at the protest. You have to be wary of Sophie. I know Sophie well.
I know her. Life for her is like the theater. She takes us for characters,
she gives us roles. I am the father.
I am a father. I am his father, pure spirit,
artistic advisor, and you are the kids’ friend. The nice, resourceful guy
who doesn’t put himself in a teacup. As after a while
she finds the room boring. Then finally, she finds that our roles
are not that interesting, so she gets bored.
She is bored. When she’s bored,
she gets mean. If you love her, you do
n’t let yourself be trapped by her. Invent, you have to invent. We must not stop inventing. Otherwise, everyday life
will take over. And then there… Their name, Saint-Français.
It’s good. Well done.
All right. And then, the bowls. Bob, you know
the area very well. Yes, I came often with
my mother when I was little. My darling, come quickly. I’ve prepared a little
vitamin-packed cocktail for you to help you recover from your emotions. Yes, Fanny? She didn’t sleep with you? Yes, but she was no longer in my bed. Bertrand and Frédéric
aren’t there either. That’s not possible. What could have happened? Honey, I really,
really think we need to call the police. You’re not going to bring
the police to this, are you? Wait a minute, they’ll come back. Bob, you don’t know Frederic? He is capable of anything. Come on, my dear, I assure you, it’s better. It must be done. What’s the police number here?
What is Paris? 17. The police?
Yes, hello sir. Family vacations are awesome. As Jules Bonnard said,
not everyone wants to be behind the wheel. How do you like it ?
No, I’m not stinging you. Hey, here they are. My little love baby. Where were you? We went to get some croissants. It’s too late, we’ve finished lunch. Yes, we have nothing in our stomachs. Come on, come on,
let’s eat something. Thanks anyway. It was nothing. You are smart.
We were worried sick. Frederic, do you want a coffee? Gladly. Chantal will make you worry,
won’t she, Chantal? But certainly. Wait my chick. The children, they have I thought I would
take a long walk this afternoon. I know a castle up near here
that I went to when I had rage. I would like to go and see
what has become of him. I don’t see it on the map. Maybe they hired him back, right? Yes, that’s what you think you’re entitled to. You have to go with someone
who knows the area well. Ca n’t you help me find my way? There is something that is not very
far away, it is the tower in Rhune, the large roof, the Pit Vieux. It doesn’t say It’s the right one. The moon glue is like
a big moon, a Vebrusque, charpa. The main road.
The way, the way, the way. You see?
There, that’s the Fada code. Honey, what are you doing up there? It’s dangerous,
you know your arm is coming. We must try to get our heads together,
get up, in the countryside. He is happy.
Can we go there? Come on, come on, we can go.
Come on, come on, we can go. Come on, come on, we can go.
Come on, come on, we can go. Come on, come on, we can go.
Be careful of the sword tubes. All right. Do
you understand? It’s very nice to see everything wandering around. But all these guys, they’re alone. After 35 years, it scares me. I’m 30 years old, I
absolutely have to meet a guy. Hey, by the way, I wanted to tell you. Bob, he’s really great. What a seduction. It’s a shame he does
n’t like women. He really doesn’t like them?
He always knows, you’ll see. Fanny, my dear, be careful. Laetitia too. Mom, mom, look at this. She is beautiful. Oh my, that’s probably very rare.
We’ll see. You know, girls,
when you find rare flowers or plants , you shouldn’t pick them,
otherwise they won’t grow anymore. But we didn’t know it was rare. There is no sign that
says: Don’t like me picking. Maybe we can replant it. No, Nounouille,
the roots are gone. What is this flower called? Well, I don’t know. A colchicum, right?
Isn’t that what colchicum is? I don’t know anything about it at all. Here, my dear. Maybe you should ask Dad,
but he might know. Okay, let’s go. Dad, dad. What is this flower? It is a very rare flower.
Where did you find it? Besides, the wall down there. It’s called a It’s not possible. But often, we say wolf’s mouth. Mom, I was sure he knew. Let’s go, Bob.
It’s very beautiful. Before the beach, come with us.
I’m coming. Everyone.
You see? Come on, children, let’s continue. And then they were all eaten
by sheep or in the forest by wild rabbits. Could you give it to me, Mom? Do you think it’s once in a while?
Yeah, I think so. Gift.
Wait for me. That’s what it is. Gift ? Snapdragon. THANKS. Maybe you can go
play with the others. You’re not going to argue about it again?
No. Promise? Sworn. I love you both. You and I still managed to achieve something amazing. Fanny. Yes. We must not hurt him. She is beautiful. Then, she looks like you. Well, physically, because in everything
else, she’s much better than you. Maybe in other ways
she looks like her father. But, what a hypocrite, what’s more,
you don’t believe a word of it? No. But, I still love you, you see. Do n’t leave me. I need you. Do you love me or do you need me? Don’t do it again. By when? I want to have a drink tomorrow
evening in Lorient with the cameraman. It’s Pierrot, do you know him?
Yes. We have to go to sea for 15 days. Besides, I have absolutely no idea
how we’re going to manage with the children. Don’t worry,
we’ll find a solution. We still had a good fight
this afternoon. Thanks to whom?
Thanks to me. You’re really odious, that.
You too. Here is the cake. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday to you, Fanny. Happy birthday to you. The candles are in stages.
I’ll spoil everything for you anyway. Go ahead, we’ll make you a group.
One two three. Yeah.
Well done. That’s good.
It’s a shame that Julien isn’t here. He had promised. Come on, the gifts. Yes, gifts. Bob, help. Help me, it’s too expensive. I don’t know. Okay. Leave me a plate. Gifts. We’re taking small ones from you, aren’t we? Yes, we will defend ourselves. There are still some. So.
If you don’t have enough,
ask us for more. We were afraid you might miss us
a little, so you see. I wasn’t scared.
Look, look. There you go, Julie. Let me introduce you to Joël and his friends. They came to surprise
Fanny for her birthday. Well, if you want. Hello Joel.
Good morning. Listen, we’re glad
you came. THANKS. Would
you like a little glass of champagne? Yes, that’s good.
Go for it. Good morning.
Good morning. Good morning. Do
you want some concrete? GOOD. What’s the surprise?
The surprise. It’s good. It’s wonderful, it’s very starry. It’s a shame we’re all leaving tomorrow. Is
everyone leaving? Well yes. You return to Paris with Sophie,
Bertrand goes to Bordeaux for his film. He takes Fanny and Laetitia, whom he will
drop off at my parents’ house in Toulouse. And then Frédéric leaves for Brittany. He leaves
Simon Bonnoyen in Nantes. Sophie left them at the age of sailing. When she enjoys it, her parents allow her
to finish the vacation with her parents. And you ? I don’t know yet. Nobody is waiting for me. And you could stay here
and you were home to me. You will do one thing to me,
one last stroke of love, and you will repay me with it. Bob, but that’s a great idea. You see what I’m missing
is a man like you. A man capable of giving
meaning to my life. You see what I mean?

  1. Je viens de regarder ce film que j'ai trouvé sympa… Avec tous ces enfants frères et sœurs de deux pères differents, mais avec une mère égocentrique… Pas évident pour l'ex et le nouveau maris qui, heureusement, eux, s'entendent comme deux amis… 😮😊

  2. Fraicheur et bonne humeur, quand même ! Les ados sont les ados, et franchement y'a pire !!! Un pur régal, et un Jean-François dans un rôle inattendu… Pierre Arditi et lui, quel duo de rêve ! MERCI, gros like. Je suis abonnée !

  3. La famille élargie..une épouse coincée entre l EX ET LE NOUVEAU…….
    Égoïste..opportuniste.
    Manipulatrice..
