A young woman tests the limits of her romantic relationship by concurrently experimenting with being ‘single’ in one of Rohmer’s bleaker offerings on the existential nature of love. 

Rohmer plays an elaborate, frolicky game of relationship misunderstandings and coverups in his third ‘Comedies & Proverbs’ series, as most of the characters try to make sense—with sheer incompetence—what the meaning of love is.   

Rohmer’s second ‘Comedies & Proverbs’ film is one of his more straightforward affairs as it dissects with nuance why some people are obsessed with marriage, while others are simply disinterested.

The film’s unconventional narrative structure and free-flowing dialogue stand out as Rohmer effortlessly delivers a relationship-spying story in the guise of a romantic comedy.

The romantic complications of a young man and three women are laid bare in this naturalistic and minimalist entry from Rohmer’s ‘Tale of the Four Seasons’ series.
