A young student visits the home of a friend who has all the good looks, women and luck. Every day, through binoculars from his friend's window, he sees a young girl in front of her home. Although attractive, the woman's face has been badly scarred. He finds out her phone number and the two engage in pleasant conversation. He gets up enough nerve to ask to meet her in person, but the socially inept young man becomes paralyzed with fear. He again summons the courage to meet with her before he is plagued with fear once again.

Focusing on the characters of those involved, this French drama explores a political campaign in a small town and the corruption which enters into it. Sex education gets the countrified locals all roused up against a citified school reformer, even though it is actually a side issue. The farmer whose concerns are picked up as a theme by the right-wing politicos figures out that he is being used.
