A robber escapes from prison with a single objective in mind: to track down his former cellmate, a serial killer who intends to pin his crimes on him. A cop is sent after the robber who, despite his best efforts, soon becomes Public Enemy Number One. As the protagonists are driven to their limits, it becomes increasingly unclear who is the hunter and who is the prey.

Every night, Jérôme runs until he is exhausted on an athletics track, while his mother, who is in hospital, struggles to maintain her dignity in the face of her illness, hoping to die in peace. Torn between love and fear of loneliness, he faces an inner struggle that is as physical as it is emotional.
