Told episodically and bordering between the fictional and the documental, the film intimately interweaves the life stories of young women who no longer have a real home with their own families. They are given refuge in a temporary youth home, where they and their carers bond to form a new family. La Mif is a safe haven for wounded protagonists who do not spare themselves or others.

Jean-Luc and his old gang of 1968 pacifists, now in their seventies, reunite to make a film protesting against Swiss military export. After blowing up an arms factory they are brought to justice, but many hail them as heroes.
