A young girl sees the theater in which her parents play burn down, and they disappear in the fire. Twenty years later, the orphan girl, who has become an actress, is summoned by a director who wants to remount the play and offers her the role of her mother on condition that she finds the text. Immediately, and as if by magic, the father, like the ghost of the opera, reappears and dictates his conditions for access.

A gypsy arrested by the police refuse to give an alibi that would prove his innocence. Reserved and dreamy, he would rather keep intact the memory of a moment he shared with two naked women, a few hours earlier, on the edge of the Bois De Boulogne.

This minimalist French retro-drama shows a beautiful summer day that one family spends in a sunlit park. The children play, the father hums a nursery rhyme to his daughter, the mother sews something on everyone's clothes. When the mother finishes sewing, everyone puts on their clothes, and the tree looks away, the child runs to the tree one last time, but everything is different.
