[1] The film's original French title is a pun on its themes, as the word "aimant" means magnet when used as a noun, but "loving" or "affectionate" when used as an adjective.
The film stars Isabelle Blais as Julie, a woman returning to Montreal after five years living in Guatemala with her now ex-boyfriend.
When Jeanne decides to leave for a romantic weekend with Manu, she enlists Julie to keep leaving notes for Noël so he won't notice that she's gone — but Julie, hoping to help rekindle Jeanne and Noël's relationship, takes the opportunity to write the fake notes more romantically.

[4] The film received seven Prix Jutra nominations, including Best Picture,[5] winning for Best Screenplay (Pelletier), Best Supporting Actress (Moreau) and Best Music (Bastien and Dumas).
