D’amour et d’eau fraiche / Living on Love Alone (2010) DVD5

Julie (Anais Demoustier) is eager to make a start in the job market. But she finds herself taking a succession of soul-destroying jobs (the film is especially brittle in its look at the ostensibly hip and 'human' PR world) and tangling with a series of wildly unsuitable men. "I'm all alone, I'm 23, I'm broke", she will later complain, "I can't even afford a tiny flat with a shower". Not that she is complaining – she desperately needs the money. Despite her university degree, her bilingualism and her youth, life is just not working out for Julie the way she had imagined, as she finds herself seemingly doomed to a succession of humiliating jobs and ill-suited lovers.
Then along comes Ben (Pio Marmai), a charming young slacker with an entirely different outlook on life, and Julie finds herself half-heartedly accepting his invitation to join him down south for the Summer on the Spanish border. The simple life there seems to represent an idyllic alternative to the bustle of the city, but paradise comes at a price, and the young lovers' romance is about to collide head-on with reality.
