Bertrand Beauvois is a self-satisfied lawyer who has been hired to defend a wealthy woman accused of murdering her lover. Provided with a bodyguard to protect him against certain Russian interests, the innocuous Bertrand initially bristles at the constant presence of the tough, no-nonsense Christophe. Shadowed at every moment, Bertrand protests that this is overkill, but Christophe is nothing if not professional – and he has been hired to do a job. Things take a turn when the mild-mannered lawyer is dazzled by the attentions of Audrey, the stunningly beautiful local television weather girl. Mind and body meet, collide and flirt, but their relationship gets complicated when it is revealed that the now-indispensable Christophe once had a fling with Audrey, and holds a barely concealed grudge. The situation becomes even more complex, as Fontaine keeps us guessing, the cast romp through the situations and, this being a French romantic comedy, nothing goes as planned

This film turned out to be more entertaining than I expected. Really good understated performances and a not so obvious ending. And it's not easy to play such a ditzy character as the female did so well in this film. My #3 film of the festival so far. (After Evening Sun & Last Lullaby)
