Max wakes up one morning and discovers that his wife Hélène has left him in his sleep, without a word, taking their two children with her. He doesn't understand. The nights drag on, his demons get involved, he chooses to face them and to anchor himself in reality. He probes his feelings, revisits from top to bottom the artifice of his life. Max ends up rediscovering his love for Hélène and decides to win her back. But isn't it already too late?
