Synopsis:
Based on the exodus of city dwellers to the countryside in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, this film tells the story of Marie-Philippine and Pierre-Louis, a well-to-do Parisian couple who want to break away from their exhausting city lifestyle by going green. However, their idyllic vision of the countryside is confronted with a very different reality, as they meet a whole series of colourful characters: Katmandou, a student who practises tantrism; Cochonnaille, a gruff farmer who is an expert in charcuterie; and the ‘exiles’, a couple of forty-somethings who used to live in Cap d’Agde. Their new life promises to be a tumultuous one, and settling into life in the heart of France will pose a few problems for them. Was moving to a village and forgetting Paris really such a good idea?…
