Art

Three Parisian friends find their long-standing relationships tested when one of them, Serge, purchases a large, expensive, and supposedly abstract painting. Marc, a more traditionalist friend, is appalled by the purchase, viewing it as a symbol of Serge's changing values. Yvan, the more conciliatory friend, attempts to mediate between them, but finds himself increasingly drawn into the escalating conflict. The film humorously explores themes of friendship, art, and masculinity.
