French Film Festival 2025 – Love Affairs(s) Les Choses qu’on dit, les choses qu’on fait

Vacations in the French countryside. Daphne, three months pregnant, finds herself alone to welcome Maxime, her boyfriend François’ cousin. François had to leave in a hurry for Paris to cover for a sick colleague. For four days, while waiting for his return, Daphne and Maxime get to know each other and share very intimate stories that bring them closer…. A contemporary star-crossed love affair, where no partner is more at fault than the other. Multiple love triangles seen with authenticity, elegance and compassion.

Set against the stunning backdrop of the French countryside, director Emmanual Mouret’s winsome endeavour finds a clever way to spin off a walking-and-talking conceit into something more full-bodied.
