Jamie Thraves

Franck is a restless young man in his late twenties whose life revolves around his friends and his work. He would like to devote his life to his artistic passions, instead of making accessories for TV shopping shows. However, he lacks the confidence needed to lead a bohemian life. He decides to leave the apartment he shares with his friend, Terry, and sets out to find a new one. He is seduced by Ruby, a young woman in charge of the visits. A romantic relationship is going to begin balanced between complicity and communication problems...
