Synopsis

Baya Benmahmoud, a young, extroverted liberal, lives by the old hippie slogan: “Make love, not war” to convert right-wing men to her political causes by sleeping with them. She seduces many and has received exceptional results—until she meets Arthur Martin, a Jewish middle-of-the road scientist.

Our take

In this audacious romantic comedy, Sara Forestier plays a free-spirited woman on a liberal mission of political conversion under the sheets. An unbridled and cheeky affair tackling a myriad of controversial topics related to France’s ethnic diversity, with brazen flair and Gallic jokes a gogo.
