Romeo is in a pop band with his girlfriend and his best friend, then they break up because the other two get together.
A year later Romeo speaks to the Saint, a woman who sees everything and knows everything, and she tells him that his life is about to change, that he will meet a woman whose name is a flower, and will find love and money and happiness.
While working - he plays the piano - he meets Marguerite, who sings, and six months later they’re still together in Bruxelles. He’s not happy though, and goes out at night to eat at a fast-food, and meets the waitress, Iris.
He meets her again and starts with the lies - he says his partner is a 27 year-old fashion photographer,Sylvie.
She writes small poems, so he tells her they should turn them into songs and record them. Marguerite follows him and sees them together, so they break up and he goes to stay at Iris’ place.They decide to focus on their work, and Iris tells him they must never sleep together so not to ruin their partnership. They practice a lot and make a few song, and find a job playing at some club in town, and they are much liked.
A producer sees them and makes a big offer to Iris, but only her. She’s 25, and it’s a great offer, but they don’t want Romeo because they say he’s demodè, they want a younger image for her.
Iris gets home and they make love, she waits to tell him the news til the morning. Romeo tells her he’s in love with her, and then she tells him her news. Romeo is so angry, he yells at her saying things very very hurtful, calling her names, bad words, making her cry, wanting back all the money he paid for her home and their job, until she goes to stay with her father… or so she says. Romeo is exactly her father’s age.
Iris takes the train to Paris, wants him to go with her, but he’s still angry, talks to her like a scolding father, then he asks her not to go.
Of course she goes anyway.
It ends with Romeo playing in the club, without her.
