Film Synopsis
Clément, a young Parisian philosophy teacher, is far from happy
with his posting to Arras. He misses the bright lights of the
capital and doesn't know what to do with his spare hours. Then he
meets Jennifer, an attractive hairdresser who soon becomes his
lover. Whereas Clément's literary diet is monopolised by
the works of such intellectual giants as Kant and Proust, Jennifer has
yet to progress beyond popular trashy novels and celebrity mags.
They may share a physical and emotional attraction but is this enough
to overcome the cultural and social barriers that separate
them...?
