Description

It's hard to sustain a relationship based on a lie, and things get a lot complicated here when lies become the foundations on which romantic relationships, favours and that between parent and child get all built upon. An innocently anonymous letter from a hair salon handyman Jean to his boss Emelie, the salon co-owner, gets tossed aside by the latter since she obviously paid no heed to it, only for that attention to be retracted when she realized that her mom Maddy is due for a romantic lift from her prolonged sustained depression since her husband Marc left her for someone younger and nubile to be his artistic muse. Thus begins a series of contrived misunderstandings and lies built upon lies with the constant letter writings from Emelie posing as an anonymous admirer.
