Une bonne comédie à voir avec mes parents. Y a plein de moments très drôles et des moments touchants aussi. J’ai trouvé ça super fun et décalé de voir des hommes de la 40/50aine naviguer ensemble au travers de leurs problèmes et en faisant de la natation synchronisée. Malgré la présence majoritaire d’hommes je trouve que ce film est quand même relativement déconstruit.
Synopsis
40-year-old Bertrand has been suffering from depression for the last two years and is barely able to keep his head above water. Despite the medication he gulps down all day, every day, and his wife's encouragement, he is unable to find any meaning in his life. Curiously, he will end up finding this sense of purpose at the swimming pool, by joining an all-male synchronised swimming team.
