When Valérie, Michelle's daughter from Paris, brings over her young son Lucas for a school vacation visit, tension arises between mother and daughter. In an ill-advised attempt to cope with the stress, Michelle serves Valérie toxic mushrooms for lunch, leading to a brief recovery but resulting in Valérie prohibiting any further visits of her son. Overwhelmed by loneliness and guilt, Michelle spirals into depression until a new chapter unfolds when Marie-Claude's son returns from prison. This unexpected development brings about both challenges and opportunities that help Michelle navigate through her emotional turmoil and rediscover the essence of friendship and family in a world filled with imperfections.
