Tagline: Welcome to the Venus Beauty Institute where love, innocence and sex are a sight to behold.

Plot: It's Christmas in Paris, and three employees of a popular beauty parlor are each looking for for a way out of loneliness, while Madame Nadine (Bulle Ogier), the boss, tries to keep her staff in check. Angele (Natalie Baye), is a single, middle-aged woman reluctant to discard her youth. Samantha (Mathilde Seigner) is in a hurry to grow up fast. And Marie (Audrey Tautou) is a young, naive beauty discovering passion for the first time.

The main story centers on Angele, who by night prefers crash-and-burn affairs to the risk of losing love one more time. But when a stranger, Antoine (Samuel Le Bihan) approaches her to profess his undying love, Angele is unsure whether it's a blessing or a curse. Nearly half her age and engaged to a beautiful young woman, he seems too eager to win her affection. However, she slowly realizes that her time is running out, and she is forced to decide between solitude and trust. On one level a soap opera about fleeting romance, VENUS is also a humorous jab at society's fixation with youth and beauty at the expense of everything else.
