As the city swelters in the heat, Sébastien learns that he is ill. For his daughters, the news comes as a shock. The family’s balance is shattered. How can they mend what seems irreparably broken, with time working against them?

Each tries in their own way to come to terms with this new reality. Sam, the eldest, seeks comfort from Élie, her boyfriend, but the memories that resurface threaten to sweep everything away.
