Good French film, it is not exceptional, not very different, even a little cliché, but it manages to entertain and it is competent that it proposes, well ... Interesting to observe the iran and union of the other women, but not very sensible and without sorority...

Plot summary
40-year-old Vital, a shop workman in a textile mill, is chosen as a "guinea pig" by Alix, 25, a consultant who has come to the factory to conduct an ergonomic study. What this quiet and secretive man does not know (and what nobody knows for that matter) is that the young woman is actually the daughter of Baretti, the boss, on condition of anonymity. And what Vital did not expect (nor did anyone else) is that Alix would soon fall under his charm...

Not too memorable
The story was reasonably entertaining and moved at a decent enough pace. The acting was pretty good, the actors all played their roles credibly.
That said, this film was not all that fulfilling to watch - quite a few unexplained plot elements and poorly developed strands in the storyline. There was just enough substance to hold the basic story together, but not enough to make this film particularly memorable.
Romance in a beautiful context
Beautiful and lightweight movie. The societal norms have been violated so gracefully. The portrayal of the age gap between the actors was also well done. I loved the part where his ex-wife commented on his fatigued appearance and blamed it on "youth" in referral to Alix. The part that also got stuck in my head was when Vital was telling his friend how he was finally breathing again; and that made me reflect a lot on my personal life.
