In LES OLYMPIADES, a neighbourhood in the thirteenth district of Paris, three young women and a man meet in the middle of their lives. Sometimes as friends, sometimes as lovers, sometimes as colleagues, sometimes all of those at once. Emilie gets to know Camille when she has to find a new roommate. They have a great mental as well as physical connection - which is truly only amicable. Or so they convince themselves. Nora is completely done with men and love, but the stealthy looks and subtle seduction of her colleague Camille eventually make her take the leap. In their relationship she is soon confronted with herself and her intimacy issues. The only one she dares to discuss those with is camgirl Amber Sweet - but you will have to come watch and find out by yourself how they get to know each other.
"With the emotionally layered female portraits in this film, based on the graphic novels by Adrian Tomine, director Jacques Audiard proves that he is more than an author of virile cinema." - de Filmkrant
