Synopsis
Rémy (François Civil), who has an unskilled job, and Mélanie (Ana Girardot), who works in scientific research, are two thirty-year-old Parisians at the mercy of a depressive mood. Victims of the loneliness of the metropolis, they try in vain to meet someone somewhere, especially on social media, even if they live right on the same floor of two terraced houses. Both undergo psychotherapy and thus embark on a path that will lead them in the same direction.
