One Saturday in spring, Simone, 17, receives a letter that will be a source of endless anguish. The strong ties with her sick father, André, although she loves him as much as he scares her, sometimes take up too much space in her life and prevent her from imagining a life elsewhere.

A disoriented young man, Guillaume lives a withdrawn life in which every step outside feels like an astronaut’s expedition in outer space. Everything changes when he crosses paths in his neighborhood with Véronique, a flamboyant 65-year-old self-proclaimed poet who interacts forcefully with people in the streets. The encounter comes as a shock and Guillaume is swept along, asking for more… at his own risk.
