Director: Michel Leclerc
Screenwriter: Michel Leclerc, Baya Kasmi
Starring: Sara Forestier, Jacques Gamblin
Genre: Comedy
Plot: Baya Benmahmoud (Sara Forestier), a young, extroverted liberal, lives by the old hippie slogan: "Make love, not war" to convert right-wing men to her left-wing political causes by sleeping with them. She seduces many and so far has received exceptional results – until she meets Arthur Martin (Jacques Gamblin), a Jewish middle-aged, middle-of-the road scientist. Bound by common tragic family histories (the Algerian War and Holocaust under Vichy), the two improbably fall in love. Amid the humorous lasciviousness and zany moments, filmmaking duo Michel Leclerc and co-writer Baya Kasmi inject satirical riffs on such hot-button sociopolitical issues as Arab-Jewish relations, anti-Semitism, immigration, and racial and cultural identity.
