Un chef de gare surréaliste, un poète de la mécanique, un retraité "à la coule", une centenaire à l'humeur chantante, un paysan voyageur, un gyrocoptère qui fait du sur-place, un coq qui passe à la casserole... La Vie comme elle va prend les choses comme elles viennent et les gens comme ils sont. Loin du cynisme de la ville, le film révèle la réalité décalée d'un petit village de la campagne aveyronnaise : un bouquet champêtre d'humanité dont les héros sont reliés par un même désir, celui de vivre à Najac, proches de la nature, et y vivre bien, libres.

A group of people are standing along the platform of a railway station in La Ciotat, waiting for a train. One is seen coming, at some distance, and eventually stops at the platform.

Popular legend has it that, when this film was shown, the first-night audience fled the café in terror, fearing being run over by the "approaching" train. This legend has since been identified as promotional embellishment, though there is evidence to suggest that people were astounded at the capabilities of the Lumières' cinématographe.
