As a famous actress, Fabienne is used to being admired and served. Recently, she has published her memoirs and is being visited by her daughter Lumir, who has arrived from New York with her husband and child. When Lumir begins to read her mother’s book, she realizes that it is filled with lies and omissions – but Fabienne has no time for explanations. However, everything gradually starts to unfold: truths will be told, accounts settled, loves and resentments confessed.
