Force Majeure (Uncontrollable Circumstances) begins with a drug deal involving tourists Phillipe (Patrick Bruel) and Daniel (Francois Cluzet), and a Dutch stranger. Two years pass: the Dutchman has been arrested in an unspecified Asian country, where the penalty for drug trafficking is death. Phillipe and Daniel agree to admit that the hashish partly belongs to them, which will reduce the Dutchman's sentence, but also subject the twosome to a prison sentence themselves. Malcolm Forrest (Alan Bates), a representative of Amnesty International, does what he can to aid all three of the unfortunate young men. Force Majeure was co-written by Michele De Broca, wife of director Philippe De Broca.

En Madrid de los años 20, numerosas mujeres se alquilan como nodrizas para las familias burguesas. La leche se paga muy bien, por eso las mujeres recurren a los honestos servicios de Paco, cristalero de oficio, que redondea el sueldo de final de mes dejando embarazadas a las clientas que pagan por ello. Sin embargo, María, su mujer, obsesionada por la maternidad, no consigue embarazarse. Federico, que lo tiene muy bien considerado, lo quiere contratar para que forme a futuras prostitutas, pero Paco se niega en redondo y le pasa el trabajo al farmacéutico, un mujeriego que pagaría por hacer su trabajo.
