After seeing the initial passion and romance fade into a series of routine and boring relationships, Alexandre (Vincent Perez) concludes that romance ends when sex enters into a relationship. Determined to prevent this from happening with his latest love-interest—a sexy young woman named Fanfan (Sophie Marceau)—he decides that platonic love is the solution. Despite the wonderful, romantic, and inventive ways Alexandre finds for them to spend time together, Fanfan is left disappointed by his refusal to make love to her. Their exciting relationship becomes jeopardized by Alexandre's unwillingness to change his new approach to love.

Fanfan (Fanfan & Alexandre) is a 1993 French romantic comedy film written and directed by Alexandre Jardin and starring Sophie Marceau and Vincent Perez. This film is based on the director's best-selling 1990 novel, which was translated into almost two dozen languages.

==Plot== Alexandre (Vincent Perez) feels disillusioned with his fiancée, Laure (Marine Delterme), whose idea of romance is a pair of slippers for Valentine's Day. Their once passionate relationship has settled into monotony. To clear his mind, Alexandre visits the beach cottage of his friends Ti (Gérard Séty) and Maude (Micheline Presle), where he meets Fanfan (Sophie Marceau), Maude's granddaughter, a student studying to become a perfumer. Though they sleep in the same bed that night, Alexandre avoids any physical contact.
