Capucine, one of the most iconic beauties of her time is dead. Her only survivors were her three feline friends, Océane, Cheyenne and Tutalou. They hear from gossip Camille that they are to be put to sleep and their ashes cast to the wind because they are too old to be found a new home. Left alone in their Lausanne penthouse they contemplate their fate and set about planning their escape. While waiting for the opportunity to arise they reminisce about their adventures with Capucine and her lifelong fight with bipolar and philosophize about the complexities and peculiarities of the Human Condition and despair at mankind's indifference to sufferers of mental illness. A bittersweet tale of love, laughter and affection set to the background of the Swiss lakeside city of Lausanne and splendour of Provence.
