Alain (played by Vincent Lindon) is middle-aged and has achieved almost nothing besides serving a few years in prison. Just released from jail and broke, he reluctantly returns to his mother's side, having nowhere else to go. His elderly mother, Yvette (played by Hélène Vincent), naturally has a cold attitude towards her disappointing son, and their conflicts escalate over time. In an unexpected turn, Alain discovers that his mother has been diagnosed with a tumor. Will this shocking revelation ease the tension between them? Knowing her time is limited, Yvette does not want to end her life suffering from illness. She wishes to take control of her own fate and end her life before the disease takes its toll, having already chosen her "place of death." Upon learning of his mother's decision, Alain feels a mixture of emotions.
