l'Arnacoeur is an action-packed romantic comedy, led by actress-singer and France's sweetheart, Vanessa Paradis (Girl on the Bridge) and art house heartthrob, Romain Duris (The Beat That My Heart Skipped -SFFF 2005, Paris (SFFF 2009, Russian Dolls).

Duris is Alex, a professional Don Juan who makes a living breaking up couples with his sister Mélanie (Julie Ferrier) and her husband (François Damiens). Because business is slow, they go against their principles to break up only unhappy couples, and agree to work for M. Van Der Bercq.

Their mission seems simple: they have one week to stop Van Der Bercq's daughter Juliette (Vanessa Paradis) from marrying the man she is madly in love with. But this questionable mission becomes hazardous for Alex, as he enters the world of the rich, beautiful and self-assured Juliette and her seemingly perfect boyfriend, Jonathan.
