Madeleine Hartmann-Clausset

The chronicle of a few bourgeois families spending their summer holidays in a small town on the Atlantic coast. Beach, games, bored children, couples who invite each other, who go out, who bear the brunt of temptations, weariness, the banality of everyday life, even on vacation.

This film explores everyday lives of a small group of middle-class women who meet frequently (if not daily) by the tennis courts and in the beauty parlor. The film revels in their intrigues and difficulties, and the way they meet the challenges of day-to-day life.
