The strange title refers to a song of the same name by the French chansonnier Serge Reggiani and means that happiness is always closer than one thinks. This is a bittersweet film in which 15-year-old Emile is the main character. His parents are very simple people who have to live frugally and have a somewhat crazy attitude to life. This is much to the annoyance of Emile, whose hair they color to make him look more beautiful. At school he meets Pauline, for whom he has a crush. She is a rich man's daughter and tells Emile that she will perform the harp at a classical concert in Venice. Emile wants to please her by also going to Venice. But how will he get there?
The film then becomes an enjoyable road trip in which the family (older brother Fabrice also joins) grows closer together. Poelvoorde feels like a fish in water as the paterfamilias and with the humor we know from him. The film gets off to a slow start, but then it becomes quite strong, when life throws some vagaries on the family. The romance sometimes makes way for more bitter moments, but more than turning it into a drama, the film chooses to learn to embrace the less pleasant things in life. A fun movie with a good cast and a good attitude.
