Storyline

It's summertime. Marc takes his wife and their two kids to the Mediterranean coast. The summer heat awakens their desires. Laura, their daughter, soon disappears with her biker boyfriend. Their son Charly waits for his best friend Martin, who has a crush on him. His mother, sensing the vibe between the two teenagers, suspects her son is gay. Not particularly bothered, she discusses it with her husband who seems more affected by the news. When Mathieu, the mother's lover arrives, things get more complicated. The summer holidays are turning out to be more eventful than expected.
