Set against the backdrop of a summer on the French riviera, the Roussier family and its fragile equilibrium is shaped by the uncertain diagnosis of 13-year-old Bertille, who suffers from a severe disability. Her parents and older sister Marion live in constant fear of losing her. Disconnected from typical teenage dreams, Marion seeks escape in a relationship with an older boy.
