A hotel room. Sixty-five years of love. One final check-out they'll never forget.
Jacqueline and Richard, a couple in their eighties, return to the hotel where they spent their first night of love sixty-five years ago. In that same room, they rediscover memories of the past as they retrace their shared love life. Little by little, we understand the true purpose of this pilgrimage. Faced with the disease that relentlessly gains ground, they have decided not to leave each other and to leave together, with dignity.
