Hascoët, Émile, Léo, and Paul are a rowdy group of teenage skateboarders. They pile into Léo’s mom’s car and drive to Barcelona, the mecca of skateboarding, for their first trip away as almost-adults. They live on vacuum-sealed tortillas, drink warm cans of Lemon Damm, and spend their days and nights at MACBA. The beach might as well not exist, and the Sagrada Família is just something they pass on the way. All that matters is skating, drifting through the city, and burning through those first fragile days of freedom. Ten years later, they try to piece it back together over a few scattered phone calls. The memories are still there, but something has shifted. What once felt infinite now comes back in fragments.

In life, there are only two kinds of moments: meetings and breakups. This is the story of a breakup and two meetings. Or maybe the other way around.

April 2022 in France. The presidential election is entering its final round and the atmosphere is tense. Solène, a waitress, drifts through the night. She takes drugs, hurts people’s feelings and increasingly loses her grip.

Antoine’s dreamy gaze slowly shifts from the jellyfish he’s fascinated by to Jeanne, his brother’s girlfriend, who’s come to stay with them in Gouville for the holidays.

Ivan is a freelancer on holiday in rural France. Not very inspired by the article he has to write, he hangs out by the river with Léa and her baby Jojo. It’s the start of a workation…

Antoine, 14, skateboards through the streets of Bordeaux with his friends and his little camera. Paul, 25, spends a night in the city with his friends, rewinding the movie.

A seemingly ordinary day in the life of Quentin, a Parisian film-lover. After going to the cinema twice, he runs into a former college friend, listens to a girls' conversation in a bar, then goes and meet his best friend, has a beer, and ends up spending the evening in the Parc Montsouris, where he meets Lise.

Antoine, a young driving instructor, feels self-conscious about his receding hairline. Desperate to keep his hair, he tries multiple treatments, which lead to unwanted side effects.
