It is summer, and thirty-year-old Antoine is forced to leave the city to return to his family in Provence. His father is sick, so he must assume the lifestyle he thought he had shed—driving the family grocery cart from hamlet to hamlet, delivering supplies to the few remaining inhabitants. Accompanied by Claire, a friend from Paris whom he has a secret crush on, Antoine gradually warms up to his experience in the country and his encounters with the villagers, who initially seem stubborn and gruff, but ultimately prove to be funny and endearing. Ultimately, this surprise French box-office hit is about the coming-of-age of a man re-discovering life and love in the countrysideIt is summer, and thirty-year-old Antoine is forced to leave the city to return to his family in Provence.
When his father (Daniel Duval) has a heart attack and is hospitalised, thirty-year-old Antoine (Nicolas Cazalé) has to go back to the village in Provence helping his mother (Jeanne Goupil) and assume the lifestyle he thought he had shed, driving the family grocery cart from hamlet to hamlet, delivering supplies to the few remaining, mostly elderly inhabitants. Accompanied by Claire (Clotilde Hesme), a friend from Paris on whom he has a secret crush, Antoine resents being forced back to his father's orbit, and his brittle relationship with both his father and brother Francois (Stephan Guerin-Tillie) cause much conflict, while Francois has his own broken marriage to cope with. But gradually he warms up to his encounters with the villagers, while clumsily mishandling his budding relationship with Claire.
