- TriviaBefore the shooting, the actors trained for seven months, especially with Julie Fabre, former coach of the French Olympic synchronized swimming team. If the latter was initially skeptical, she told Gilles Lellouche that things would finally be able to be done after three weeks.
- GoofsRight after the counting sequence ("1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8"), Amanda's lips in the long shot do not match her yelling.
- Quotes
Claire: Your team is lucky. You put a lot of heart into people you don't even know.
Bertrand: It's precisely because I don't know them that I put so much.
Claire: Are you that disappointed?
Bertrand: But we're all disappointed. We're all disappointed. Everything's disappointing. Even when we're happy, we're disappointed. We spend our lives being disappointed. And that's probably what makes the idea of death a little more bearable. I guess.
Claire: Did you take your medicine?
Bertrand: No, I've run out.
Claire: Ah well, that's it! My love, I'm going to have dinner with our children. I'll leave you with your best friend, Monsieur l'Escalier. And if you ever decide to slit your wrists because of that pool thing, I beg you, go do it in the garden of the fascists across the street. Might as well traumatize their kids as ours. Do you agree?
