Synopsis
A divorced father, Guillaume Favre (Call my agent’s Grégory Montel) is desperate to get shared custody of his daughter. He needs to keep his job as a chauffeur to pay for somewhere better to live, with room for his daughter. He is assigned a new client: a gifted perfumer Anne Walberg (Best Actress César Winner Emmanuelle Devos) whose skills at constructing and identifying scents are matched by her egotism, poor treatment of her drivers, and lack of tact. Unlike most people, Guillaume stands up to Anne, and she requests him to be her sole driver as she lands a series of jobs requiring her skills across France.Watch the Trailer
