‘Oudney’s debut was sincere, warm, believable, and laugh-out-loud funny.’ Adrian Hennigan, BBC

Why is it that French lovers seem to have all the answers, whilst the rest of us only questions? Could it be that French is the true language of love?

Journalist Jed Winter (Hugh Bonneville) is preparing to interview the celebrated French auteur film-maker Thierry Grimandi (Eric Cantona), a self-appointed expert on the nature of love. Jed is quick to dismiss Grimandi's theories of love and romance as pretentious nonsense, irrelevant to real people in real life relationships.

But when his long-term girlfriend, Cheryl (Victoria Hamilton) refuses to marry him and instead forces him into couple counseling, Jed begins to realise that his own emotions aren't as he once believed. Even his best friend Marcus (Douglas Henshall) wants to talk less about football and more about love as the truth about his relationship with perfect girlfriend Sophie (Anne-Marie Duff) gradually emerges...

As one by one his loved ones reveal their dedication to l'ammour, Jed starts to think that Grimandi might have the answers after all.

But he's damned if he's going to admit it.

An original romantic comedy about love - whatever your nationality.
