Maria Natalia Verbeke, his new maid, introduces him to her compatriots and their simple but happy lives animated by friendship and folklore, in contrast to the relative emotional austerity of his own life. Slowly he recovers his joie de vivre by tasting lifes simple pleasures when his wife Sandrine Kiberlain falsely accuses him of having an affair he moves into an empty room in the servants quarters upstairs, the first time he has had a bedroom of his own.Two of the Spanish actresses, Berta Ojea and Concha Galn, did not speak French before the film and learned their roles phonetically. ........
