Audrey Tautou stars as Nathalie, a happy and successful Parisian business executive who finds herself suddenly widowed. To cope with her loss, she buries herself and her emotions in her work to the dismay of her friends, family and co-workers. One day, inexplicably, her zest for life and love is rekindled by a most unlikely source, her seemingly unexceptional, gauche, and average looking office subordinate, Markus. As their relationship goes from awkward to genuinely loving, Nathalie and Markus will have to overcome a host of obstacles including everyone else's judgmental perceptions as well as their own self-doubts. Nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay and Best First Film at the **César Awards.** "*Delicacy is a small, bittersweet romance about getting over the loss of a loved one - if that's possible - and moving on.*" - Steven Rea, ***Philadelphia Inquirer***
