Jérémie, in his mid-thirties, is going through an existential crisis. He struggles to get his acting career off the ground, his love life is undermined by his repeated bouts of jealousy, and his relationship with his boyfriend Albert falters. Overwhelmed by these romantic, professional and family misadventures, he decides to leave Paris and return to his homeland, in Limousin. There he will try to recover with his – nosy and invasive – mother and prepare for a crucial audition for the rest of his career: the character of Moritz in Frank Wedekind’s Spring Awakening.
