AroView: This French romantic comedy-drama takes a contrived premise and turns it into a surprisingly fresh take on the genre that delivers complicated answers to the simple question posed by the title.

The ever-engaging Laure Calamy and Vincent Macaigne play a divorced couple who find themselves having to justify reasons for their marriage annulment before a Catholic church hierarchy in order for him to tie the knot with another woman. Forced into the discomfort of having to reassess their once-married relationship, an extended family trip to the Vatican serves to bring out the best and comedic worst in all of them before a touching and genuinely uplifting finale.

“Tremendously funny and moving.” ~Catherine Balle, Le Parisien

“A comedy that combines lightness, humour and real depth on a universal subject.” ~Laurence Houot, Franceinfo Culture

“This finely written comedy is the most beautiful tribute we can make to the joyful brothel of blended families.” ~Emily Barnett, Marie Claire
