action

Philippe, the Parisian diaper and toddler supplies manufacturer, and his wife Annie are having a very happy marriage until - yes, until Philippe one day a tax inspector snows into his office. Since Philippe - who trusts the tax office and who trusts the tax office? - if the good Monsieur Buchfink does not move from his slightly crumpled suit, his married life suddenly falls short. Annie feels neglected, seeks advice from mothers and friends who put one flea after the other in her ear - the rest is given to her by advertising, which has the best suggestions for women in Annie's situation, from breathtaking lingerie to breathtaking skin oil " Erotissimo ”. But even Annie's daring transformations fail because of Philippe's trauma from the tax audit. Again, Annie is too firmly on the ground for a real affair. Annie is about to despair when Philippe pulls her into his arms: the tax audit is over happily. A little vacation should make the reconciliation festive; but the trip to the country house in Spain conjures up new entanglements.

criticism

The Evangelical Film-Observer draws the following conclusion: “The official French competition film at the Berlinale [...] offers ample opportunity for laughter. Pirès filmed the most uninhibited, most uninhibited satire on the prevailing sex and advertising hype, a veritable barrage of biting and malicious ideas that never lets a moment of boredom arise. Amusing entertainment [...]. "The lexicon of the international film judges:" The little film gives - at least in the first part - a thoroughly imaginative and apt parody of the sexualization of life through advertising and the press.
