If I Die, It’ll Be of Joy

Synopsis

Micheline, 81, dreams of orgasms and tells anyone who will listen that she is burning with desire. Francis, 70, a tireless activist, challenges the taboos surrounding old age. Yves, 68, feels like a shell in a stormy sea and desperately seeks love. In a world that underestimates the power of elderly people, these three are part of a group of activists who defy prejudice, dare to reinvent sexuality and love, and rethink old age.
