Synopsis

Set on the Cote D'Azur, France, Rene (Olivier Gourmet) is confined to a wheelchair and lives in a "home" supported by the Catholic church. He's not an easy person to get on with but builds a bond of trust with one of the nurses, Julie (Nadia Kaci), and confides in her that his last wish before he dies is to have sex with another woman. Julie takes a great risk but manages to arrange a meeting for him with Florele (Nadine Marcovici), who has a caravan on the busy autoroute 7. Word gets out at the "home" about Julie arranging this for Rene and what transpires from director Jean-Pierre Sinapi is a controversial film which confronts this issue.
