This French comedy is about a 40 year old divorcee whose car breaks down in Greece. She is then introduced to the true romance of the country by a winning youth of 22

Back in New York, where she runs a lucrative real estate business, the divorcee has problems with her mother, 17 year old daughter and ex husbands

She is also courted by a handsome client. One day something startling happens: a boy who comes to date her daughter turns out to be the youth from Greece

Not only is the attraction between them still irresistibly strong, but the 45 year old client really loves the daughter. It's a jolly turnabout
