Plot
Alice is a journalist in her late thirties, and the divorced mother of a teenage boy. While professionnally successful, she struggles to find a suitable life partner.
As she and Claude are about to break up, she starts reminiscing about her past relationships: Simon, an older, irascible singer who involves her in his artistic endeavors and with whom she constantly fights; Patrick, a young saxophone player who naively conquers her heart with his doe-eyed glance while accompanying one of Simon's songs; Julien, a timid, middle-aged gentleman who falls for Alice while helping her push her stalled car to a roadside during a thunderstorm. The film follows a non-linear narrative as it recounts Alice's romances with those men and how their relationships ultimately failed.
