In the wake of her mother's death, feminist author Agathe (Agnès Jaoui) returns to the rural town of her birth to reconnect with her estranged sister, Florence (Pascale Arbillot). While there, Karim (Jamel Debbouze) -- a would-be filmmaker and son of the family maid -- requests permission to profile Agathe for a documentary about inspiring women. Agathe agrees, but soon finds herself at the lens-end of a camera manned by Karim's mentor, the misogynistic Michel (Jean-Pierre Bacri).
