Crazy Driving (Petites vacances à Knokke-le-Zoute)

Micheline has dedicated her life to her family; three grown up sons and a husband with his own plumbing and zinc business. They live in a typical village in French-speaking Switzerland where everyone knows one another. One day, she unexpectedly decides to take her driving test, which disturbs the family routine. Leaving her orderly daily life behind her, she sets off in an orange Citroën Dyane accompanied by a young autistic neighbour, who knows all the road signs by heart! What dream is Micheline pursuing which takes her to see the sea at Knokke-le-Zout?
