Mathieu owes everything to his friend Vincent : his house, his job, and even his life, ten years ago. With their wives, they are an inseparable quartet, and live the easy life on the French Riviera. But Mathieu discovers Vincent is cheating on his wife.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Attal and Maïwenn were married for years; their real divorce finalized shortly before filming, adding layers to every loaded glance.
