Synopsis by Mark Deming
In this free-spirited romantic comedy, Oriane (Michele Laroque) has grown tired of her relationship with Hadrien (Vincent Perez), an architect with a habit of climbing tall buildings, a relationship precipitated by her breakup with Hadrien's best friend, who responded by attempting suicide. Looking for more variety, Oriane becomes involved with handsome Xavier (Arnaud Giovaninetti), while Hadrien is tempted away by Marie (Audrey Tatou). Hoping for a simple solution to the mess she's in, Oriane hires a sorcerer, Bodel (Miki Manojlovic), who warns her it's going to take more than one of his spells to sort out the romantic confusion. Epouse-moi received its North American premiere at the 2000 Montreal World Film Festival.
