Godard's delightful romantic comedy tells the story of Angela (Anna Karina) an attractive nightclub stripper who decides one day that she must have a baby. Her boyfriend Emile (Jean-Claude Brialy) is resistant so suggests she approach his friend Alfred (Jean-Paul Belmondo). What starts out as a harmless joke quickly escalates into a flurry of misunderstandings petty jealousies and arguments. Amongst Godard's most accessible works Une Femme est Une Femme untangles the complexity of human relations with both humour and insight.
