Synopsis
Five random days in the lives of a French family, spread out over a dozen years, paint a telling picture of the ups and downs of human relationships. Robert Duval is a taxi driver who is married to Marie-Jeanne, who has shed the bohemian ways of her youth with the passage of time. Robert's father has been generous enough to give his son the comfortable home he shares with Marie-Jeanne and their children, but that doesn't mean there's always a genuine respect between them. Robert and Marie-Jeanne have three children - their eldest Albert is struggling with the rigors of medical school when we first meet him, while Raphael is a teen trying to decide what to do with his life and Fleur is still learning to be comfortable with her femininity. Between 1988 and 2000, the Duval family finds themselves dealing with the sort of life changes that affect most families, seeming both typical and revelatory at the same time.
