Tridan Lagache a passé sa vie au Club Med, à changer d’amis tous les 8 jours. À 50 ans, il démissionne du club de vacances mexicain où il est né, bien décidé à retrouver, 42 ans plus tard, son grand amour d’enfance, Violette. Il débarque à Paris, naïf et perdu mais heureux d’être hébergé chez Louis, un demi-frère dont il ignorait l’existence. Pour se débarrasser d’un Tridan encombrant, Louis supplie une de ses conquêtes, Roxane, de se faire passer pour Violette que Tridan croit reconnaître au premier regard.

Life for Real (2023)
110 min
Tridan Lagache has spent his whole life at Club Med, changing friends every 8 days. At 50, he resigns from the vacation spot where he was born, determined to track down his great mini-club childhood love, Violette. He shows up in Paris, naïve and lost but glad to be lodged by Louis, a half-brother he never knew he had. In order to be rid of the cumbersome Tridan, Louis passes one of his fling off as Violette, and Tridan, all emotional, thinks he recognizes her at first glance.
