Mavie 27岁，刚从省份搬到了法国首都。她梦想成为一名作家，但困扰着她的是怀疑和不确定性。76岁的厌世者乔治在巴黎经营着一家书店，或者说他只是被迫在那里避难以逃避他的过去？这确实是两个奇特的生物。乔治很愤世嫉俗，不再对生活抱有太多期望，而Mavie仍然充满期待。然而，在他们之间发生了一些神奇的事情，直到乔治的黑暗秘密突然追上他，Mavie卷入了一些非常不同的事情...

Mavie is 27 years old and has just moved to the French capital from the provinces. She dreams of a future as a writer but is plagued by doubt and uncertainty. 76-year-old misanthrope Georges runs a bookshop in Paris – or has he merely been forced to take refuge there to escape his past? These are two peculiar creatures indeed. Georges is cynical and no longer expects much from life, while Mavie is still brimming with expectation. Yet something magical happens between them, until Georges' dark secret suddenly catches up with him – and Mavie is caught up in something very different...

Belle, jeune et pleine de doutes, Mavie cherche sa voie. Elle arrive à Paris et y rencontre Georges, libraire au Quartier Latin depuis quarante ans. Solitaire, comme caché dans sa boutique où personne ne vient, Georges l’intrigue et la fascine. Aussi improbable qu’inattendue, leur histoire d’amour va définitivement transformer le destin de ces deux drôles d’oiseaux.

Mavie ist nach Paris gezogen, und hängt in der Luft – sie will Schriftstellerin werden, doch sie wird von Zweifeln geplagt. Eines Tages trifft sie den zynischen Buchhändler Georges. Der Menschenfeind scheint nichts mehr vom Leben zu erwarten. Die beiden unterschiedlichen Sonderlinge formen ein fragiles Duo.
