A multifaceted exploration of the pointlessness of sexual stereotypes. Liv Ullmann is a countess who, after her divorce, takes over the family farm. Realizing that she can't rely on the patriarchal society structure for assistance, Ullmann runs the farm herself with the help of her female servants and relatives.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

The film blends comedic lightness with a poignant social message, never becoming preachy. The dialogue is witty, and the performances, particularly by Liv Ullmann and Philippe Noiret, are charming and full of nuanced contradictions.

What lingers after the credits roll is a gentle yet firm challenge to outdated norms, wrapped in the warmth of its characters' camaraderie. It's a celebration of quiet competence over noisy arrogance. — MovieFinder Editorial
