Two couples, Léa and Marc, Karine and Francis, have been friends for a long time. The macho husband, the girlfriend with a bit of a big mouth, they all take their place in the group. But harmony is shattered the day Léa, the most discreet of the bunch, tells them that she has written a novel, which goes on to become a best-seller. Far from rejoicing, small jealousies and dirty tricks begin to erupt. Human, too human! It's when success arrives that one recognizes one's true friends... Would the happiness of some be the cause of misfortune for others?

Beneath this comedy lies an acerbic tale about a woman, played by Bérénice Bejo, who is suddenly propelled by her success: victimized by her own friends, she nevertheless maneuvers to make her voice heard despite Florence Foresti whose sick jealousy leads to some funny situations. As for the men, the naturally funny edge of François Damiens (a perfect navel-gazer) is very well developed, whereas Vincent Cassel is almost touching in his role as a husband stuck in a traditional model. Neither man is up to dealing with strong women. An acerbic tale in the spirit of the times, directed by Daniel Cohen (author of THE CHEF with Jean Reno, 2012).
