Le 15 Novembre - Les chansons d'amour
Love Songs, with Louis Garrel, Ludivine Sagnier and Chiara Mastroianni.

Julie's boyfriend Ismaël lives with her; rather than worry about the time he spends with his colleague Alice, Julie invites Alice to join them. They party, read, and sleep together. Sometimes it's lighthearted, sometimes there are jealousies. They are hopelessly romantic Parisian characters who are unable to convey their feelings to one another in everyday situations, and who thus use songs to express their feelings...
The loss of love, the discovery of new love, the impossibility of mutual love.
In French with English subtitles.
