Plot[edit]
Twenty-one year old Valentine (Sophie Marceau) is a part-time teacher preparing for her all-important final teacher examinations. She meets Edouard (Vincent Lindon), a jazz musician who aspires to be a composer. Despite the fact that the two have different schedules and career agendas, they engage in a passionate affair. Valentine compares her relationship with Edouard to the dry dissertation of Molière's The Misanthrope during her oral exams at the Sorbonne.
