Maison de retraite 2 (lit. Retirement home 2) is a 2024 French comedy film directed by Claude Zidi Jr. It serves as a sequel to Maison de retraite (2022).[1]
The Lino Vartan Home for young orphans and elderly has to close for sanitary reasons. Milann Rousseau, manager of the facility, decides to accept an invitation from a retirement home in the South of France that proposes to host them for the summer. All the residents of the Lino Vartan Home are transferred by bus to the Bel Azur Club, which is set in an idyllic villa by the sea. But the persons who live there soon express their strong dislike for the newcomers.
The Bel Azur Club is managed by Claude Masson and his daughter, Clémence, is the main nurse. Milann and her gradually fall in love. For the sake of the budding couple, the two groups of residents decide to make peace. However, one of the children discovers that Claude is in league with a big EHPAD nursing home chain, Major Santé, with a bad reputation, and that the whole invitation was just a scheme. She cannot warn Milann in time: he has signed an agreement to have his protégés hosted by Masson, and, as a consequence, the elderly residents are all sent to one of Major Santé's nursing homes near Paris while the children are taken to an orphanage.
Milann is helped by Clémence, who was unaware of her father's intentions, and they trap Major Santé's COE, Reine Montrosier, by selling her an old mansion pretending it is a new top-notch facility that big investors are about to buy. With the money they receive they buy the villa on the sea where all the children and their elderly friends can now live.
