Caroline and Olivier are sixteen, in love and would like nothing more than to be left alone. Unfortunately, be it parents, grandparents or even teachers, everyone seems to want to meddle and interfere in their affairs.

Ils nous collent à la peau et à l’âme, nos vêtements. Nous croyons les acheter c’est eux qui nous possèdent. Attention ! ces chiffons sont des traitres : loin de nous habiller ils mettent à nu nos complexes, nos humeurs… Accrochés à leurs cintres, à nos mémoires aussi, ils exercent sur nous une dictature sournoise. Blottis, serrés les uns contre les autres, ils construisent dans nos placards un rempart contre l’oubli. Souvent tachés pour l’éternité d’encre ou de groseille, imprégnés de parfum, de larmes quelquefois, empilés ou bordéliques sur nos étagères, ils restent liés pour toujours aux chapitres heureux ou malheureux de notre vie. C’est à travers l’évocation de leur garde robe que Gigi, Eve, Marie, Nora, Françoise, Amanda, Lisa et les autres évoquent le passé, les rendez-vous manqués et ceux qui ont changé leur vie, les joies et les révoltes de l’enfance, les fous rires, les déceptions, les drames, les fêtes et les espoirs aussi…

Danielle (Bernadette Lafont), a grandmother in her sixties, is planning to take her two grandchildren to their father’s house for the Easter vacation. Since retiring as a schoolteacher, Danielle has regularly taken on this responsibility after her daughter’s divorce. This time, however, the children’s father is not there to welcome them, giving Danielle the opportunity to spend a bit more time with her grandchildren and to take them out for the day. Jumping at every opportunity presented to them, Danielle soon transforms this day-outing into an impromptu holiday. Only what starts out as a fun adventure gradually turns into an inexorable deconstructing experience, and it soon becomes impossible for Danielle to contemplate taking the kids back…

Little did this pretty brunette know when she applied for a babysitting job that her employer was an artist and that everything at his place differed from the outside world. What struck her the most was to find out that her boss had shrunk his wife and kept her in the fridge in order, as he said, to keep her safe from a hostile world!

1971 film by Jacques Baratier

Emile Magis, a modest employee, more or less ostracized by the others, would like only one thing, to be happy. Little by little he realizes that life in society is a matter of convention, lies and deception. When he has understood that cynicism rules the world, he decides to play by its untold rules and to take his revenge.

Unable to put a single word on paper, a youngish man with one novel to his credit finds that his life is crumbling to ruins around him because of his severe case of writer's block. He tries every remedy known to man and makes up a few new ones in this comedy. All his efforts are futile: he loses his girlfriend and his apartment and has a succession of misadventures until finally, homeless and hospitalized, he rediscovers his inspiration.
