Violette and Florence are two women with something in common, beyond being neighbours. While one finds herself on an emotional edge during her maternity leave, the other feels nothing at all, and neither can make sense of what’s happening to them. Realising that their suburban lives have left them unfulfilled, Florence begins an affair that kicks off a sexual revolution where having fun is the top priority. But between handyman hookups, chaotic misadventures, and marital strife, is reality destined to come crashing down on them?

A musician serving others for 20 years, Joseph Marchand dreams of a first solo album. Unfortunately, he is paralyzed by a heartache that prevents him from composing. Supported by his young and ambitious agent, Ariane, who has temporarily become his roommate, he will try to go through the five stages of grief in order to achieve his goals.

Two filmmakers exchange impressions of the place and the moment through film-letters, supported by a soundtrack that oscillates between real and immaterial. The sounds then become narration and carry the moving images of an encounter that takes shape according to the 16mm reels that alternate from one to the other.
