Synopsis

[edit]

In Lyon, Claire (Marie Gillain) is a young magistrate confronted with people in debt, in particular with a young woman, Céline (Amandine Dewasmes), whom she tries to help. During a hospital examination, Claire learns that she has an incurable brain tumor (glioblastoma) and that she has little time to live. At the same time, she meets Stéphane (Vincent Lindon), a more experienced colleague, and together they seek a legal loophole against the credit agencies.
