It's Andrea's birthday and she is looking forward to celebrating with her family: her husband Jean is preparing the feast, her two sons have arrived - Vincent with his wife and children and Romain with his new girlfriend. The table is set in the garden in front of the house and the grandchildren rehearse a play for the jubilarian. A sudden downpour is not the only surprise. The eldest daughter Claire, who emigrated to California three years ago, arrives completely unexpectedly. Her arrival quickly shakes up the already fragile harmony. While Andrea tries to maintain the façade of a happy family, one conflict after another comes to light.
