The story revolves around a brother and sister who are nearing their fifties - Alice is an actress, Louis was a teacher and a poet.
For decades, siblings Louis (Melvil Poupaud) and Alice (Marion Cotillard) haven’t spoken to one another. They share a burning resentment and refuse to even acknowledge each other’s existence – the reason for this hatred isn’t exactly clear. However, when their parents are hospitalised after a tragic car accident, the siblings find themselves wrestling with the burden they’ve been carrying for so long.
