Alice (Catherine Deneuve) is a beautiful French career woman who has avoided a committed relationship by having a series of lovers over the years. For one holiday, she invites four of her past flames over to dinner on the same evening. Reuniting with Patrick (Gérard Depardieu), Simon (Serge Gainsbourg), Julien (Jean-Louis Trintignant) and Claude (Alain Souchon) all at once proves to be both awkward and enlightening, both for Alice and her former beaus.
