Film Synopsis

The town of Amboise is one of the true gems of the Loire Valley.  It is here, in the 1950s, that a group of friends get themselves into trouble as a result of a dare that goes somewhat awry.  It begins just after Anne has passed her baccalaureate with flying colours.  She has promised her friends that she will spend a cosy night with her friend Marie-Joe in the bedroom of Henri IV at the famous Château de Chenonceau, and this is what she does.  The night passes off without any incident, but the girls get a rude awakening the following morning when they are surprised by a party of visitors.  How is Anne and her friends to avoid the scandal that is now heading their way...?
