Title:


    Jeanne & Jean Jean

Conference:



Description:


    In the heart of a furniture store, Jeanne and Jean Jean, a couple in their late thirties, debate intensely, in a control room, about their decoration desires.
    Exasperated, Jean Jean goes to take a bathroom break. Meanwhile Jeanne witnesses the disturbing ballet of the other couples. On his return, full of good intentions, Jean Jean says he is ready for a decorative compromise, but frightened, Jeanne leaves without even listening to him. A dramatic chase then follows: run away from me, I’m following you, follow me, I’m running away from you, in the large aisles of the store.
    By chance, they come face to face among the duvet covers. Moved, the lovebirds then reveal all their fears and doubts. But that was without counting on a crowd of harassing customers who commented and tried to influence them! Exhausted by all their emotions, Jeanne and Jean Jean lie down on two promotional mattresses. Then an idea came to them…that of not living together but of continuing to love each other.
