Cockles And Muscles

During a balmy summer holiday, Marc (Gilbert Melki) takes his wife Beatrix, (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) together with their two children, Laura and Charly, to the seaside house of his youth. Unbeknown to Marc, a series of events, confused with love and sexual identity, is about to unravel. His nineteen-year-old Laura, embarks on a rendezvous with her biker-boyfriend, which lands them in Spain, while his son Charly, 17, spends all his time exploring new places with his best friend, Martin. Beatrix senses that Charly and Martin are more than just the best of friends and that in actual fact, her son is gay. Although upset by the very prospect of having a gay son, Marc has greater complications to deal with when his old flame suddenly turns up at the same time as Mathieu, his wife's lover. Passions and desires reach boiling point and finally erupt in this comedy of chaos.
