In this little Provencal village, a new baker, Aimable, settles down. His wife Aurelie is beautiful and much younger than he. She departs with a shepherd the night after Aimable produces his first breads. Aimable is so afflicted that he can not work anymore. Therefore, the villagers, who initially laughed at his cuckoldry, take the matter very seriously (they want the bread) and organize a plan to find Aurelie and to bring her back to the bakery.

Wiki.

The Baker's Wife (French: La femme du boulanger) is a 1938 French comedic drama film directed by Marcel Pagnol and featuring an ensemble cast lead by Raimu, Ginette Leclerc, and Fernand Charpin. It was adapted by Pagnol from an episode of French author Jean Giono's 1932 novel Blue Boy. In the film, the new baker in a Provençal village loses the will to bake after his wife runs off with a handsome shepherd, so, to regain their daily bread, the feuding villagers agree to put aside their bickering and work together to bring back the baker's wife.

The film was the basis of the American musical of the same name, which was first produced in 1976.
