Sophia and Xavier have been together for over a decade, but they seem like an old couple, comfortable more than passionate. When Xavier hires Sylvain, a charismatic and handsome contractor, the door to passion is opened to Sophia.

Sophia is in her 40s, an acclaimed professor who loves Xavier, but the sparks seem to have cooled many years ago. When one of their close friends gets divorced, Sophia begins to reconsider her life, and when Sylvain enters her life, she is smitten. But nothing is as it seems in this surprising film that unapologetically embraces the tropes of romance even as it obliterates them.
