A poetic and romantic road trip. Ludivine, who undertakes pilgrimages on behalf of other people and sleeps under the stars, encounters on her travels a trumpeter who is weary of life…

Ludivine is a ‘seeker of forgiveness’, meaning that she earns her living by undertaking religious pilgrimages on behalf of other people – a common enough occupation in the Middle Ages but rather less so these days. Baptiste is a renowned and talented musician, but can no longer face picking up... Ludivine is a ‘seeker of forgiveness’, meaning that she earns her living by undertaking religious pilgrimages on behalf of other people – a common enough occupation in the Middle Ages but rather less so these days. Baptiste is a renowned and talented musician, but can no longer face picking up his trumpet after a burnout. At the insistence of his daughters, he resolves to walk to Santiago de Compostela and along the way he crosses paths with Ludivine in Brittany. AfterÂ spending some time with her, he can’t quite bring himself to leave her side and so he abandons his Spanish project to accompany her on her pilgrimages. And thus begins a road trip across France that takes them from one monastery to the next. An ambiguous sexual relationship quickly develops between them that oscillates between the comical and the romantic, but it seems that a tragic ending may be in store for them.

Exploring themes such as whether to adhere to conventional lifestyles or opt for voluntary isolation or life in a community, Lulu tout simplement is a genuine ode to nature and adventure.
