In this Cannes Film Festival award winner, a group of first-year literature grad students at the Sorbonne quickly succumbs to the charms of André (Thibault Vinçon), a brilliant bad boy one year their senior who seduces everyone in his path. Demanding absolute loyalty, André has both faculty and coeds eating out of his hands -- until he abruptly leaves town one day. Now, the group must find a way to continue without the light at their center.
