Summary
Agathe leads a comfortable bourgeois existence, with her son and
husband. Patrick lives alone with his son in the back of a
van. She manages a prestigious foundation of contemporary
art. He just about gets by with state handouts and odd
jobs. They have nothing in common, so it is hardly surprising
that they fail to hit it off. Their paths would never have
crossed had it not been for the fact their sons have become the
best of friends. Where children go, adults are sure to follow...
