Synopsis:

Agnès Jaoui follows her marvelous first feature, 'The Taste of Others,' with an equally delicious comedy, as tart as it is sweet, of ambition, miscommunication and egoism. Set in a Paris that seems to be populated entirely by artists and writers (some of whom also have beautiful houses in the country), the film affectionately tweaks the bad manners and complacency of France's intellectual elite. Jean-Pierre Bacri plays a famous novelist whose cavalier neglect of his slightly overweight daughter (Marilou Berry) is the moral pivot on which the complex plot turns. Ms. Jaoui plays the young woman's voice teacher, who husband is an up-and-coming novelist and who is either the film's most honest character or its most thorough-going hypocrite.

Étienne (Jean-Pierre Bacri) is a famous novelist who is unconcerned by the unhappiness of his daughter Lolita, an overweight, sulky and insecure but gifted aspiring soprano. Lolita would love her father to look at her but unfortunately he is blinded by visions of himself. Lolita's apparent docility conceals a deep undercurrent of loathing, both for herself and for a world which she feels judges her solely on her appearance and, to add insult to injury, it seems that every person she meets wants to know her solely as means of getting to her famous father.
