Grégoire Canvel has everything a man could want. A wife he loves, three delightful children and a stimulating job as a film producer, his vocation. Grégoire is a workaholic who he never stops, except on weekends in the country. These gentle interludes with his family are as precious as they are fragile. Charismatic and commanding admiration, Grégoire seems invincible – yet his prestigious production company, Moon Films, is on the verge of bankruptcy. Storm clouds are gathering, but Grégoire ploughs on at all costs. One day, overwhelmed by fatigue, he is obliged to face his failure.
