It's the story of one of those improbable encounters that can change the course of one's life: the encounter, in a small public garden, between Germain, fifty and barely literate, and Marguerite, a little old lady passionate about reading. Forty years and 220 pounds separate them.

C’est l’histoire d’une de ces rencontres improbables qui peuvent changer le cours d’une vie : la rencontre, dans un square, entre Germain, la cinquantaine, presque analphabète, et Margueritte, une petite vieille dame passionnée de lecture. Quarante ans et cent kilos les séparent.
