Written by Fabrice Camoin and Ariane Fert with the collaboration of Maïté Maille, Antoine Lacomblez and Gaïa Guasti, the screenplay can be summarized in a few words: the South, a storm, a crime, adultery, holidays. In a hotel, people stop for the night. The rain is way to strong to continue on to Spain. A noise, an incident. A man, Nabil Malek, just killed his wife and her lover. People look for him, but can’t find him. Maria, Pierre, their daughter Judith, and a friend of the couple, Louise, end up in this hotel. Maria tends to drink too much. For Pierre and Louise, romance begins...

Produced by Laetitia Gonzalez and Yaël Fogiel for Les Films du PoissonOrage benefits from an advance on receipts from the CNC, pre-purchases by Canal+ and Ciné+, backing from the Languedoc-Roussillon region, the town of Ouest Provence and the Sofica Manon 4.
