Synopsis
C’était mieux demain
Elsa Zylberstein and Didier Bourdon star in this inventive time travel comedy that sharply explores societal roles.
It’s 1958 in quiet suburbia. Hélène (Zylberstein) and Michel (Bourdon) live a simple but happy life with their two children. Michel works in a bank, while Hélène focuses her efforts on their home and family life. Through an unexpected series of events, the couple find themselves catapulted into the 21st century.
The year is 2025, and everything they know has changed. Hélène and Michel grapple with new technology, social rituals, and the frantic pace of modern life. Hélène now finds herself a successful bank manager and the sole breadwinner, while Michel has become the stay-at-home-husband.
As they navigate this unfamiliar world, the pair must confront new ways of thinking, loving and living.
