Étienne is barely twenty when he falls in love with Valérie. Not long afterwards their daughter Rosa is born. And then, one day, Valérie leaves and never returns. He chooses not to make a drama of it and builds a happy life for him and his child. Sixteen years later, when Rosa is beginning to lead her own life, Étienne recognizes his former companion in a television report. The past resurfaces ruthlessly, and father and daughter are propelled into one last chaotic family journey. Exhibited in Critics' Week at Cannes 2023.
