Men at 40
This comedy turns the spotlight on three men: Francis, recently and unwittingly single; Paul, a soft-spoken husband and father; and Renaud, a not-yet-jaded bachelor. Three Québécois men, in short, facing the same issues that all men face when they turn 40: health, the meaning of life, faded dreams. A time of life, in other words, when the stopwatch needs to be reset to ‘zero.’ This series reveals the ridiculous, unbearable and ultimately charming reality of men of a certain age.
