Lolita is 20 years old, over–weight and under–confident. She is desperate for attention and approval from her father Etienne to the point of an obsession that threatens to consume both her and anyone who tries to befriend her. Etienne is monstrously egocentri and, as a successful novelist surrounded by friends who indulge his unpleasantness and pander to his ever whim, he has no discernible need to treat his daughter – or even his beautiful young wife Karine – with either respect or kindess. Into this tangled web over the course of one summer fall Sylvia, Lolita‘s singing teacher, her husband Pierre whose writing is admired by Etienne, and Sebastien, a young man whom Lolita meet by chance in the street…

A sophisticated, funny and engaging film from the Oscar–nominated director of "Le Gout des Autres" (The Taste of Others).
