 High-priced Parisian lawyer Bertrand (Fabrice Luchini) travels to Monaco to defend a wealthy woman accused of murder. Bertrand discovers that his bodyguard, the scowling Christophe (Roschdy Zem) can be useful in a variety of ways, but the danger posed by the case is nothing to that posed by stunning TV weathergirl Audrey (Louise Bourgoin). Where, exactly, does a bodyguard's job end?
A bodyguard hired to look after a lawyer ends up protecting the man from himself in this breezy comedy from France. Bertrand Beauvois (Fabrice Luchini) is a successful fiftysomething attorney who's hired to represent Edith Lasalle (Stéphane Audran), who has been charged with killing a man with ties to the Russian mafia.
Edith's adult son, Louis (Gilles Cohen), has been warned that Russian strong-arm men may try to silence his mother and her legal team, so he hires a private security team to protect them and Bertrand finds he's shadowed at all times by stone-faced Christophe Abadi (Roschdy Zem). Bertrand doesn't see the need for Christophe's presence, but when the lawyer has trouble brushing off a former girlfriend he'd rather not see, the bodyguard turns out to be a valuable ally.
