IIn his 40’s, Samir works as a crane operator in Montreuil, outskirts of Paris. Living an overwhelming platonic love for the swimming instructor Agathe, he decides, for lack of a better plan, to enlist in her classes, in spite of being a very good swimmer. But his lie only lasts three days and Agathe is very upset when she learns the truth. Is this the end? Not quite. During a business trip to Iceland, Agathe takes the distance to think about the incident with a new mindset. Directors' Fortnight at Cannes 2016.​
