Film Synopsis

Viviane and Ginette are the closest of friends, two liberated young women who have no intention of surrendering their independence as they go looking for love and affection.  Outside work, they hang out at a small bistro where they have fun at the expense of the guys who try to chat them up, including Bob, a compulsive womaniser.  Bob's best friend is his next-door neighbour Mammouth.  The latter shares Bob's love life vicariously, his ears glued to the wall as his friend makes love noisily in his apartment.  Viviane has a regular boyfriend, Patrick, the only snag being that he is a married man who has no intention of divorcing his wife.  When the holidays come, Viviane and Ginette set out together alone for the Riviera.  It so happens, by pure chance, that Bob and Mammouth have chosen exactly the same spot for their holiday.  It is whilst indulging in his favourite pastime that Bob comes across Ginette.  By the time they get back to Paris, Ginette has made a reformed character of Bob...
