In the beginning, it’s love at first sight. Henri, a university student, meets Iphigénie, a beautiful, young American. Henri’s mother warns him against the eccentricities, even strangeness, of Americans, but he pays her no attention. He marries Iphigénie just before the events of 1968.
They have three children very quickly — Victor, Ariane and Louis. Despite their strong cultural differences, the couple forms a united front as they carry on with their lives.
The same is true for the in-laws: after a rocky start, Paul and Anne Lebleu learn to appreciate Jack and Andromauqe Vanderbilt more and more. This is true to such an extent that, as years pass, they consider themselves to be one family.
May 1968, the withdrawal of troops from Vietnam, the arrival of the Left in France, the Rainbow Warrior scandal, the Iraq War, 9/11, Obama’s election…the Lebleus and the Vanderbilts cross history together over the course of five decades.
