Synopsis
C’est quoi l’amour?
WHAT IS LOVE? is an uplifting and comedic examination of relationships and new beginnings, brought to life by an all-star cast.
Marguerite (Laure Calamy) has long since moved on from her ex-husband Fred (Vincent Macaigne), having established a new life with a different partner and a teenage daughter. Fred has also put the past behind him, intending to marry Chloé (Mélanie Thierry), the woman with whom he now shares his life. When Fred asks for Marguerite’s help in obtaining an annulment of their marriage from the Catholic Church, she is only too happy to oblige. However, the process turns out to be far more than a simple paperwork exercise, and the pair find out they must prove their union was doomed from the beginning.
What begins as an administrative task soon becomes a deeply personal odyssey through their shared past. As Marguerite and Fred navigate old memories and rediscover genuine affection – as well as the tensions that broke them – long-buried feelings begin to surface. This charming and perceptive family comedy examines the complicated aftermath of breakups, featuring stellar performances from all involved.
