It is summer. We are at an isolated lake, surrounded by mountains and forests. This is a cruising spot for men. That is where Franck meets Michel and falls in love. Michel is a beautiful, charming and mortally dangerous man. Franck knows it, but wants to live out his passion anyway. Selected for the Un Certain Regard section of the Cannes Film Festival 2013, the film won a Best Director award and the Queer Palm, dedicated to queer-themed features.
