Together, he and the boy confront a relentless avalanche of creditors, an uncaring system and the daily grind from which there is no respite… From Paris to Saint-Denis, from Sables d’Olonne to Canada, the film describes the relentless social meltdown of Yann, a young cook, and his girlfriend, Nadia who become caught in a downward spiral of over indebtedness.
