Louise is a novelist in her sixties and enjoying life. When she meets and falls for Adrien, an orchestra conductor, she is forced to come to terms with what still bonds her to her husband Germain, a state prosecutor, after thirty years of marriage. Louise realizes it is above all a pact of duty and gratitude. At one point in her past a personal drama might have pushed her over the edge, but he was there to save her.
Adrien, on his end, is disillusioned by all the commotion of his brilliant career and uses music as an armor to protect himself from the knowledge that he is incapable of love.
Despite the power of their attachment and the five years they have spent slowly learning each other's idiosyncrasies, struggles and hopes, these two wounded people would not have given themselves the right to happiness if Germain had not miraculously found it for himself. Stella, ex-ballerina and Louise's friend, will be their lucky star.
