In Bed with Victoria

French courtroom rom-com following a lawyer in a life slump, her friend, a former colleague, and a dog that witnesses a murder most foul.

"Victoria Spick (Virginie Efira), criminal lawyer, workaholic, depressed, and self-centred with an empty love life, meets her friend, Vincent (Melvil Poupaud) and Sam (Vincent Lacoste), an ex-dealer who she has helped out in court, at a wedding. The next morning Vincent is accused of having attempted to murder his girlfriend. The only witness: the victim’s dog. Victoria reluctantly accepts to defend Vincent while hiring Sam as an au pair for her daughters. This sets off a series of turbulences and cataclysms that will make Victoria readjust her life."
