Plot Summary

Twenty years ago, Jean-Pierre left home, forcing Louise to raise the kids alone. Marion and Sylvain were 10 and 8. Over the years Jean-Pierre was an absent father, but after reconnecting he thought that time might have healed all wounds. At a dinner on Sylvain’s 29th birthday, Jean-Pierre announces to his children and ex-wife that he has met a 30-year-old woman, who’s expecting his child. He quickly discovers that nothing has been forgotten, much less forgiven.
