Jeanne takes her six-year-old daughter to Mallorca for the weekend. Their trip turns out to be more complicated than expected. Alexe Poukine – who plays the main role – offers a complex and powerful portrait of a mother and woman. After two feature-length documentaries, the director's first fiction describes the torments of a mother who sees the limits of self-sacrifice required by the bond between her daughter and her.
