Juliette, Florence and Marie have been friends since childhood. Marie is a doctor at a public hospital. She’s been married to Pierre for 8 years. He’s a sincere, loving and amusing artist whose major flaw is that he doesn’t earn a dime. Marie tries to be a perfect woman (mother, professional and exemplary friend), but she’s increasingly fed up with having to be responsible for keeping everything on an even keel.
Florence is married to Julien, a determined, brusque company director, with whom she has a son, Ludovic. Self-effacing and timid, she’s been a copywriter at an advertising agency for years. Then her temperamental boss, nicknamed Caligula, hands her the responsibility of a big campaign. Things should at last start going her way.
Juliette is a lawyer who barely manages to make ends meet. She has as much difficulty getting her clients to pay up as she does finding a man who’ll love her. Or, so she thinks.
All three, caught up in busy urban life, regularly steal a few moments from their routine to get together and let loose. There’s no escaping it: when you hit 35 your ideals fade and reality takes hold. That said, it’s better to laugh about the situation than to cry.
