Plot summary
Jean has been the conservative mayor of a small town for several years. He intends to run for another term. Edith, his wife, is the paragon of the traditional devoted housewife and mother. So it comes as quite a shock when she tells her husband of forty years that deep down, she has always been... A MAN! Totally blindsided, Jean didn't see this coming. For a politician campaigning on family values, this is too much! But Edith, still the loving wife, make a deal with him: she will postpone her transition and stay a woman until after the elections. But as we know, campaigns are all about digging up dirt to keep the rumor mill turning

"Nice try of the gender movements" said one review, no, it's a great one!
First thing first: this is great french cinema. If you like french comedy, you will love the movie, no matter what you think of the topic. And this is one of the greatest (but not the only) achievements of the movie. It gives you an easy, yet deep view of controversial social issues, partnership and unconditional love. It also gives you a short but thought-provoking insight of the trans world, make you ask questions and even gives you rather easy answers, if you are open to: acceptance.
You will laugh through the whole movie, and still think about how such situations would play out in your own world, family or country.
With respect to the hardships of trans people, it's a fun ride!
Nice try of the gender-movements
Nice try of the gender-movements. Acting is okay but it is a simple and predictable screen. Before I watched there was nothing exact about the plot in the trailer but I already told my gf it will about gender change movie tried to mask in a classic french comedy ... It must be alerted like gene-modified foods. To be clear I'm not some kind of hater or transphobic, I simply don't care. I don't care about trans people problems as I don't care about normal people problems too.
As I mention film is okay though, fortunatelly it was short, there were some nice funny scene and actors are okay but that's all. Chance to be an old human wants to change his/her gender is zero.
