Feeling very alone after the death of her best friend and since she's been retired, Caroline (Fanny Ardant) unwillingly receives a present from her daughters: a discovery package for Les Beaux Jours, a club for retirees offering various workshops. Although she decides to keep to herself, against expectations she develops a lively interest in computer courses, especially in a tall dark-haired young man who's old enough to be her son. Despite knowing her affair with him won't last, Caroline is happy again and feels a new wind blowing through her life, which may just sweep away everything in her path...

Sweet revenge for those who think life ends at 60! A romantic breeze whose whirlwind carries off all the clichés about the female expiration date, without turning the lead character into a scatterbrain. Completely conscious of her situation, the heroine of Les beaux jours becomes even more of a woman, with all the implicit responsibilities. An adventure that makes you want to have a family – and a lover!
