Plot

The film follows Etienne (Patrick Timsit), a 40-year-old car designer, who takes time off from work to study sexual prowess from a Zen master (Alain Chabat) and several prostitutes, in the hopes of having the sexual skill to impress Laure (Cécile de France). Laure, a blonde who was introduced to him by his friend Jacques (Richard Berry), told Etienne on January 1 that she will not have sex with him until May 27 that year at precisely 9pm.

Reception

Lisa Nesselson from Variety gave a negative review of the film, stating it played "like a tepid cross between 'Rocky' and any number of prick-teasing comedies".[3]
