A vibrant 90 years old woman shares her secrets and regrets with us. By turns revealing, painful, melancholic and hilarious, Madame Grosu's stories are sure to teach us all a thing or two. Madame Grosu knows how to observe the deepest meanings in the smallest things like a great oriental philosopher. She is voluble, wise and quick-witted. She loves nature and animals and she enjoys a cigarette from time to time. Nowadays, 90 years old Clotilda Grosu lives with her many cats in her old mansion. With her stories, she moves from the present to events years before getting the most out of her extraordinary joie de vivre.
