Synopsis
Lolotte, aged 70, lives a peaceful life in the apartement which she shares with her daughter Marie,35, a high-powered advertising executive, and her grandson whom she adores, Alex, a 12-year-old with the heart of an ecologist. The perspective of Marie's impending marriage with Paul-Louis throws the household into turmoil. Things get worse when Alex runs away from home in exasperation. Lolotte, panic-striken, "covers-up" his disappearance by keeping the news from Marie who goes off on a week's business trip. Lolotte calls on her friends for help. As in "The Magnificant seven", she gets her gang together. And they set off on the kid's trail. To Lisbon. There are seven of them. They're aged 70. They have seven days to suceed. After numerous adventures in the city and its suburbs, they finally find Alex in the zoo where he came to save a koala bear. Everything goes back to normal. The wedding takes place. But the adventure has given the grannies a new taste for life...
