Summary
Isabelle, the human resources manager of a large shipping company,
makes a serious blunder by taking as her lover her
employer. Before setting off on the maiden voyage of the
pride of his fleet, her boss decides to end the affair. Some
women in Isabelle’s position would no doubt take their revenge by
resorting to poison or firearms. Isabelle opts for a more subtle
form of vengeance. She hires an unemployed washout named
Rémy to work as a hospitality host. At first,
Rémy lives up to Isabelle’s expectations, but then the walking
disaster suddenly finds his sea legs...
