Antoine, in his forties, is an insurance expert. For a long time, too long, he estimates, compensates the lives of others. Deceived by his wife who abandons him for a tattooed adventurer, ignored by his children who do not understand why their father is not stronger, humiliated by his boss who dismissed him because he dared to show humanity to a client, the world seems to be fighting against him. He is exhausted. For him, this life is no longer worth living. So he decides to finish as soon as possible … But he realizes what he is doing and stops there.

Then begins a double initiatory path. That of a father who will try to rebuild a semblance of life, in prison then on the other side of the world, trying to forget his act of madness. And that of Josephine, his 13-year-old daughter who will try to build a life, beautiful, despite everything.

Tickets range between 17 and 28 euros.
