Written by the director, the story begins on a summer’s evening when Suzanne (Juliette Armanet) and her two young children pay an impromptu visit to her sister Jeanne (Camille Cottin), catching the latter off guard. Not only have the two sisters not seen each other for several months, Suzanne also seems somewhat absent. When she wakes up the next morning, Jeanne is staggered to find her sister has left her a letter. Bewilderment gives way to anger when Jeanne realises that the police won’t be searching for Suzanne, who has made the senseless decision to disappear...
