SYNOPSIS ET DÉTAILS
Marie et Eric, trentenaires en couple depuis le lycée, signent l'achat de leur premier appartement quand Marie est saisie d'un doute vertigineux.
Sa rencontre avec un beau brun ténébreux va précipiter sa décision : elle quitte Eric pour plonger dans le grand bain du plaisir et de la liberté.
Mais elle va surtout se manger le fond de la piscine...
Et découvrir un monde sans pitié : à son âge, le célibat est vite perçu comme une tare suspecte.
Éclairée par des amitiés nouvelles, Marie va apprendre à envisager son célibat comme une chance d'où elle pourrait sortir plus forte, et enfin prête à être heureuse.
