In the Winter Film Festival, the French comedy Chéri, I'm Coming! – The Invention of Pleasure is being shown, based on a true story. Fanny and Tom have been married for over 20 years, but their relationship faces a challenge: Fanny confesses to her husband that she has never had an orgasm. Tom, an engineer with a penchant for quirky inventions, takes this as motivation to develop a device that celebrates female pleasure. What begins as an absurd idea turns into a turbulent expedition full of laughter, failure, and unexpected adventures—from fleeing the police to stealing their daughter’s stash of drugs.
Directed by Reem Kherici, the film blends humorous moments with sensitive insights into the renewal of a long-term love. The highly dedicated sex therapist provides the crucial impetus. A touching yet delightfully witty story about a couple willing to take new paths and rediscover themselves in the process.
