A candy-colored, feather-light voyage back to the styles and mores of France in the 1950s, Régis Roinsard's "Populaire" inserts the conventions of romantic comedy into the context of a now little-known and long-bygone sport: competitive speed typing.
Rose Pamphyle lives with her widowed father and is destined to marry a son of the local mechanic. When she travels out of town and applies for a secretarial job with an insurance agency run by Louis Échard, he learns that Rose can type with extraordinary speed - using only two fingers.
Starring Romain Duris as an arrogant businessman embarking on an unusual mission, Populaire is a French take on the Hollywood movies of the 1950s. A charming romantic comedy exploring gender roles, as well as a woman’s unexpected journey to fame through an unlikely sport: typewriting.
