This contemporary adaptation tells the daily life of two women, Violette, on maternity leave, and Florence, on sick leave, who decide to free themselves and break the monotony by celebrating feminine desire.
“The themes explored by Catherine Léger really speak to me. She is both funny, but right on target. Women have the right to be themselves and whatever that means to them. I am truly inspired by the freedom that her characters claim,” Chloé Robichaud said in a press release. Mani Soleymanlou and Félix Moati are also part of the cast.
