Camille, jeune femme trentenaire exerçant le métier de maître-nageur, attend le grand amour et durant ce temps se disperse dans des aventures amoureuses légères et expérimentalement variées. Sa rencontre accidentelle avec Alexis, un homme marié avec deux enfants, responsable local du Parti socialiste, concrétise ses espoirs. Prête à tout accepter pour avoir cet homme, ou à tout le moins vivre une relation adultère avec lui, elle pratique une stratégie d'infiltration dans ses activités privées et son couple, devenant une intime de la famille. Un temps très réticent à répondre à ses avances, Alexis finit par céder à son désir et au caractère débordant de Camille. Les premiers feux de cette relation cachée passés, le couple adultère fait rapidement face aux limites de l'exercice. Camille finit, littéralement faute de mieux, par se marier avec Ben, un camionneur ami d'Alexis. Les deux couples, le récent et l'officiel, implosent rapidement et Camille, nouvelle Ève désormais enceinte, se retrouve seule avant une dernière rencontre avec Alexis.

Xavier (Romain Duris), a 24-year-old French student, leaves his country for the ERASMUS programme in Barcelona as part of his professional pursuits, despite it being against the wishes of his girlfriend Martine (Audrey Tautou). On the flight over, he meets a young French couple, a doctor and his wife (Anne-Sophie), who let him stay in their home while he searches for an apartment. Xavier manages to find an apartment with other students from England, Belgium, Spain, Italy, Germany, and Denmark, creating an ambiance of chaos and culture shock. The roommates begin to develop a unique companionship as they struggle together through their cultural and linguistic challenges in their program. Martine pays Xavier a visit and returns disappointed when she realizes things are not the same. Meanwhile Xavier develops a romantic affair with the French doctor's wife, seducing her with tips he has been learning from his Belge lesbian roommate. The English roommate Wendy's brother William visits for some time and turns out to be quite abrasive with his culturally insensitive comments, creating tension among the roommates. Martine eventually breaks up with Xavier, bringing him to depression and hallucinations. When Xavier seeks the French doctor's advice, he reveals that Anne-Sophie told him everything and tells him to stop seeing her. As the discordance among the roommates escalates, their friendship is repaired as they team up to help Wendy elude a sticky situation (her boyfriend Alister makes a surprise visit while she was hooking up with an American). After leaving Barcelona and bidding farewell to his many close friends, Xavier returns to Paris and gets the job at the Ministry but realizes he misses his experiences that now make him a different person. He subsequently runs away on his first day and pursues his dream to become a writer, recounting the story of his experiences in the Auberge Espagnole.

The film takes place in a fictional state of Bubun (or Bubunia), a matriarchal totalitarian country led by ruthless La générale (Generaless) (Anémone). In Bubun, roles of men and women are swapped, up to the point where male population is deprived of any civil rights, including work, education, military service, freedom of marriage etc. People worship The White Horses (making horses sacred animals) and the only source of nourishment is "paste" (tasteless viscous liquid delivered from waterpipe-like sinks). The country is isolated from the rest of the world, borders are guarded by armed squads, and public executions are in order (mostly involving men as condemned).
