Over the course of these 8 episodes, you’ll follow the emancipation of a 40-year old woman:
Juliette has just turned 40. He has also just been fired from her job in a supermarket, the latest in a long list of “temporary jobs” that have actually lasted twenty years. The time has come to take stock of her life,: a stubborn husband, two ruthless teenagers, a baby she doesn’t really want and a serious lack of euros in her piggy bank. Right. Let’s be honest, her childhood dreams are almost unreachable. She ‘d like to think it’s time to do something, but it’s mostly time to find some money. Everything changes when, with her back against the wall, Juliette applies to a phone sex company. What if this turned out to be the adventure of a lifetime?
The comedy at the heart of this project allows us to address the questions around sex work.
