21 Nights With Pattie

Death, sensual liberation and plenty of wine in a comedy imbued with the terror of southwestern France. Our heroine, Isabelle, who arrives to arrange her estranged mother's funeral, at first seems too uptight and alien to fit into local culture. Yet as she chases a disappearing body, she learns the adventures of the housekeeper, Pattie, and her own mère and begins to open up to the many temptations of the males buzzing around them in a wondrous fading summer.
