The story focuses on two young women living in a quaint suburb of Paris called Clergy-Pontoise. Although the area--an architecturally sleek campus for young professionals replete with a cafe-filled central square, modern condominiums, and a beautiful man-made lake for windsurfing--is teeming with single people, neither woman is satisfied with her social life. Sharing lunch breaks and an occasional swim at the pool, Lea (Sophie Renoir) and Blanche (Emmanuelle Chaulet) become fast friends. That is, until they inadvertently become involved with each other's love interest. Blanche lusts after Alexandre (Francois-Eric Gendron), a handsome and self-assured engineer who believes himself to be out of her league. But when Lea leaves town on summer vacation, Blanche finds herself quickly falling into an affair with Lea's live-in lover, Fabien (Eric Viellard). Lea, in the meantime, is trying to figure out a way to break up with Fabien, a task that's made easier when she begins to warm up to Alexandre. (official distributor synopsis)
