Charly is the editor in chief of a fashion magazine. When her father dies, she inherits the family business: a butchery. Not exactly her passion in life...

In the French Riviera in the summer of 1915, Jean Renoir, son of the Impressionist painter Pierre-Auguste, returns home to convalesce after being wounded in World War I. At his side is Andrée, a young woman who rejuvenates, enchants, and inspires both father and son.

Sensual, facetious, satirical and mocking, François Rabelais born at the end of the 15th century, alone embodies the Middle Ages, this fertile era from which the modern world emerged, and the spirit of research, of intellectual fever of the Renaissance, its enthusiasms and its aspirations.

Sémione is a petty, egotistical, everyman who is transformed by the successive trials he undergoes. It's the rule of vaudeville that sets the wheels in motion: small causes have big effects. An absurd misunderstanding convinces the other characters that Semione is about to commit suicide. Their sudden interest in him makes the prospect alluring. But as he is about to commit suicide, he sinks body and soul into the Hamlétian vertigo of being and nothingness.

Still she tries to find someone who'll accept her unconditional love.

A couple claimed to have seen him get out of a car at the spot where the body was discovered, carrying a large package. While in custody, Christian Ranucci confessed to the murder. But he eventually recanted his confession. His mother, Héloïse, convinced of his innocence, began a relentless fight to try to get him acquitted. It was a lost cause: Ranucci was sentenced to death and executed. When Patrick Henry's trial took place, Héloïse wrote a letter dictated by her conscience. Robert Badinter read it out in court.
