Based on two works by the playwright Jean Anouilh, this film opens with a who's-who of French acting royalty being summoned to the reading of a late playwright's last will and testament. This is an alternately wry and wistful valentine to actors and the art of performance from a director long fascinated by the intersection of life, theater and cinema.

Title from container. Based on the plays "Eurydice" and "Cher Antoine ou l'amour raté" / by Jean Anouilh. DVD release of the 2012 motion picture.
