The arrival of Noée, a young traveler, disrupts her routine and that of Yan, a solitary farmer next door. In the city, Eva, newly arrived from the Philippines, walks sleepless nights, caught between homes, while Jeanne, a master's student, contemplates walking away from everything. Between moments of doubt and brief connections, their worlds echo one another.
