Whether by intent or coincidence, Rosier’s final feature seems a French riff on Sex and the City, about a quartet of women, working working for the newspaper Liberation, as they endure the ecstasies and tribulations of singledom (or not). The film culminates in a bizarre twist ending – after one of the group has hired a sex worker to spice up a dull dating life – and whereby one of them realizes she may be happier in a bad relationship with a middle-aged slimeball.
