Synopsis: It’s a gloomy Sunday in the small flat where 14-year-old Emma lives with her mother HĂ©lĂšne. Full of rejection and resentment towards HĂ©lĂšne, Emma projects the image of the ideal mother onto her other mother, who lives far away and whom she sees very little of. But an argument with HĂ©lĂšne forces Emma to question this reassuring duality⊠As it forces HĂ©lĂšne to face up to her own contradictions. They find themselves thrown into a confrontation of feelings that they are not (or no longer) used to, and where they awkwardly begin to search for a common path.
