Camille is an emancipated 30-something woman who has no desire to settle down and have a family, preferring to coast along on a succession of ephemeral relationships and one-night stands. However, her lifestyle fails to satisfy her fully, and in a moment of depression she runs into a complete stranger, Alexis, whom she instantly falls in love with. Alexis, alas, is married, with two children, and works for the Socialist Party. None of this is going to deter Camille though…

We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.

Chicago Reader by

Effective portrait of an independent woman with a troubled and unstable sense of herself.

L.A. Weekly by Ernest Hardy

Corsini's insight into the psyche of this contemporary woman doesn't have much of a point because it tells us nothing new.

83

Seattle Post-Intelligencer by Sean Axmaker

A delight, a vigorous, vibrant romantic comedy that mines emotional desperation and frustration for all its comic potential, but never at the expense of its temperamental heroine.
