And baby makes trois!

Lucie and Marion are a happy, stable, and childless lesbian couple. That is, until Lucie's biological clock starts ticking so loudly she can no longer ignore it. Thus begins their wild adventure into the world of lesbian baby-making as they tear through bureaucratic red tape and even contemplate a border crossing in search of access to premium European sperm! Throw in a managerie of potential sperm donors, and two sets of grandparents, each with reasons for opposing the procedure as eccentric as Lucie and Marion are determined to have a baby, and you have all the ingredients of a classic, yet utterly contemporary, French farce. What shines through it all is the normalcy of Lucie and Marion, surrounded as they are by all varieties of nuts, and their utterly natural desire to experience motherhood. Veteran TV director Etienne Dhaene makes his feature debut with a delightful cinematic confection that's as fresh as today's baguette!
