Edouard, a retired history teacher, fiery and temperamental, starts to lose his memory. This intellectual man, who is used to expressing himself in the media must suddenly become more discreet. But he refuses to disappear and feels that he still has a lot to say. Since no one around him seems to be able to look after him, he is placed under the care of a young girl, Berenice. The touching encounter between these two people will lead Edward to revisit a passage of his personal history that he had chosen to forget... According to Le Devoir: "It's hard not to cry watching this sensitive and intelligent story unfold. In adapting the original play by François Archambault, the filmmaker has shown gentleness and finesse. And humor too."
