Image Une de perdue, une de perdue
Camille moves too fast in love and scares off the girls she meets. She should take her time, but it’s bad timing: in three weeks, her friends are getting married, and there’s no way she’s going to be the only single person there. So she decides to go on her tandem bike: from Nantes to Crozon, determined to find a girlfriend along the way, as hurried and frightening as ever! With her biological clock ticking and global warming looming, the pressure is atmospheric.
