Fabrice, thirty or so, from a very traditional background. His grand-mother just passed away and, for the wake, he’s the one put in charge to get back the « eau de vie » (white alcohol) and other necessary stuff for the ritual. In the course of little tour downtown, Fabrice meets people that were very important to him : a great-uncle, a little cousin, a friend. Strengely they shouldn’t be there. Things get worst when he suddently meets Elsa, his beloved gilfriend that he lost.
