Where are we going?

Everything is fine.

Robert is waiting for us.

- Come. - Gently.

Hey, ma'am! Hey!

Emile?

Are you alright?

It's Joanne, Émile.

I'm Joanne.

Joanne?

Emile.

Good morning.

It's starting off pretty well, we've found each other.

Sorry for the delay, I've had a hard time…

It doesn't matter.

OK, well then, you're… …you're ready, right?

Shall we go?

Olé.

- Where do I put them, the...? - Give them to me.

Well!

We're good.

Do you have any idea where you'll be going?

It's your journey, I'm following you.

It's kind of… … your journey too, right?

I don't care. We'll take a map, we'll close our eyes and choose.

The Pyrenees?

OK.

You told me to choose.

Yeah, that's true. Uh…

You know the Pyrenees, right?

Yeah.

OK, well then…

Let's go to the… Pyrenees.

"Young man diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's"

"wants to get away."

"Looking for an adventure companion"

"to share my final journey with."

"Route to be finalized together. Trip duration:"

"One year maximum, according to the doctors. Possibility of shortening the trip."

"Hello, Emile. Your ad caught my attention."

"I am 27 years old, and I'm in good physical condition."

"I love nature, meditation,

I am a vegetarian, I don't talk much."

"I am available right now. Joanne."

♪ You will forget the smiles, the glances ♪

♪ That spoke of eternity ♪

♪ All those words we swear Never to forget ♪

♪ You will forget, you will forget me ♪

Ai, ai, ai.

That's the only kind of music they play.

- There we go.

It was already in there, I assure you.

It's not mine.

The previous owner must have chosen it for me.

Because of the lyrics.

I can buy a new radio.

If you want.

- I can sing. - Silence is good too.

OK, yeah.

I'm not taking it badly.

By the way, I don't have a bank card either.

No card, no phone. Nothing that could trace me.

Our GPS,

Is this.

And there's enough in the glove compartment to last…

a long time, you know. There you go, you know everything.

OK.

Any questions?

No.

Keep your phone, if you want.

Just avoid posting photos.

No phone…

that works for me.

OK.

Good.

Will you tell me why you're here?

- I don't think so. - Why ?

OK.

And you don't care why I left?

I understand.

Yeah, but I could have made everything up.

I could be a psychopath.

Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?

I could cut you up and put you in the trunk.

I'm going to throw up.

- Do you really feel like throwing up? - Yeah.

- We're going to stop.

- Here.

I'm sorry.

Don't worry, I'm not in a hurry.

I have a few months left.

Tell me, do you think my sense of humor is shit or…

…do you really feel sick?

- It's better, we can go. - OK.

So that's definitely my kind of humor.

We agree.

Okay, let's go.

Just tell me, do you ever smile, or...?

OK.

I'm fed up with the rain. You can't see two meters ahead.

Is it okay if we stay here tonight?

That works for me.

OK, so it's going to be a sandwich and raw vegetables, I don't think we have anything better.

OK.

Okay, perfect.

You're not a difficult girl.

- Wait, sorry. Are you alright? - Oh, pardon.

Pardon.

Hey, black is your thing.

Without even realizing it, I'm getting to know you.

You like black, you don't talk.

You get carsick.

And you wear weird hats.

You like black, don't you?

There's only one bunk, actually.

See, you're scared.

Don't worry, I don't move in my sleep.

At least,

so I'm told.

What the hell is going on here?

Hey.

I told them we had broken down.

- Do you have the vehicle's registration documents?

Whose papers, Robert's?

I have quite a lot of papers, but I don't know where I put them.

- We left early this morning. - Left from where?

- Who cares, right? - No.

Parking without proper documentation in a cemetery is illegal.

OK, uh…

I'll check at the front.

That's not it.

That's not it…

Where did this money come from, sir?

My savings, madam.

It's not there, it might be…

Up there.

- Yes, it's there. - Be aware that he has Alzheimer's.

- Alzheimer's? At his age? - Yes…

I've never heard that one.

I don't have my glasses.

"Young man diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's"

"wants to get away. Looking for an adventure companion"

"to share my final journey with."

"Route to be finalized together."

"Trip duration: One year maximum"

"according to the doctors. Possibility of shortening the trip."

I imagine that you are the companion?

Ah, there it is!

I've found.

Here you go.

What's going on?

Has someone died?

OK.

What did you tell them?

The truth.

What is the truth?

- That you're sick. - Wait, Joanne.

That's nobody's business. I'm fine. OK?

OK ?

If there's a problem, I'll...

We create the problems. Do you see a problem?

Everything's fine. Let's stop worrying about nothing.

- Are you feeling better?

Yeah.

If you prefer, you can walk.

I mean, I'll follow behind you, slowly, with Robert.

You know, like…

… a support vehicle.

Let me know, okay?

We could go hiking, in the Pyrenees.

Wait. Did you just utter a sentence with more than three words?

Damn, that's huge.

Are you sure you feel okay? Because it's…

Listen, to celebrate, we're going to do your hike.

Sounds good.

- "Sounds good", "hiking"... - Got it.

All right.

You weren't completely wrong.

I'm still more used to climbing bar counters.

You know what I mean?

It's not always easy, either.

Contrary to what people think.

Damn, that's beautiful.

We can breathe here.

That feels good.

That feels good.

Shall we stop for a meal?

Yeah, I spotted a hostel where we parked Robert.

It looks pretty good, they serve until 2 p.m.

If we go back down now, we can make it.

But we won't see the cave

which was the objective of the hike, and I have sandwiches.

Yes.

I need to tell you something.

You see, this trip, there.

It's kind of my cigarette of the condemned man, okay?

You don't have to stay, but…

if seeing a cave bothers me or to eat sandwiches,

I'm not going to do it, you know.

Are you sure it's this way?

Yes.

We're hungry, actually, aren't we?

I'm hungry.

I'm hungry.

I'm hungry.

Be careful, okay?

I don't think it's quite aligned.

Oh my god, she looks just like my mother.

It's her birthday today.

I almost wrote to her, but I couldn't bring myself to do it.

- Did you tell her you were leaving? - No.

Of course not.

If I had told her, I would never have left.

Don't try to contact her.

Neither her, nor my friends, nor the hospital. Nobody.

I'm not being sent back there, OK?

Even at the end.

OK.

I'm serious here.

Got it.

Yes.

If you can't write to her, there are other ways to communicate.

- Yes? Like, what? - I don't know.

Write a song.

- Paint.

Write a song or paint?

- Yes.

Painting isn't a bad idea, though.

That way, every day, she marvels at my paintings.

"How beautiful."

- Damn, a bear! - What ?

Hurry up!

I read it, there are bears in the Pyrenees.

- Beautiful bear. - That makes you laugh, huh?

I hate small dogs.

"The dog is the only being capable of loving you more than it loves itself."

Yeah.

You're lost, aren't you?

- Yes. He is lost.

They are useless. Especially the little ones.

- It loses its fur, it stinks, and… - Roxy ?

Roxy ?

Ah, you're here.

Come, my baby.

Where have you been?

You’re a nightmare.

- Excuse me, hello. - Good morning.

We no longer knew where she was.

- She didn't bother you too much? - No, he's cute.

- The little ones are the cutest.

Huh ?

- What's his name? - Roxy.

Roxy. Pleased to meet you, Roxy. Emile.

That's Joanne. She doesn't really like dogs.

- Pleased to meet you. - Pleased to meet you too.

Hey!

What's going on?

Has Roxy run away again?

We're having a barbecue. If you'd like to come with your girlfriend.

- She's not my girlfriend, you know. - OK.

If you want to come with not your girlfriend, then.

We're going to talk about it with "not my girlfriend".

Chloé is suggesting a barbecue with her friends.

I'm going. If you want to come.

No, thank you.

But that's nice.

I'll bring some beers for the aperitif, is that okay?

Yeah, that works.

- OK. - See you later.

Here.

What's this, a gift?

Instead of writing letters, you could keep a journal

that you would send to your family.

Later.

Later, when I'm dead?

When you're ready.

That's a good idea.

Thanks.

Not bad.

Yes, he plays well, Kylian.

- And you, do you sing? - Oh, no.

No, I don't sing, no.

So, what are…

What's next on the agenda?

We'll be passing through Spain for three days.

- And we end up by the sea.

- That's good. - Yes, that's great.

And besides, we're a good team.

And who exactly is she to you?

You ask a lot of questions.

I want you to stay.

Don't you want to tell your weird girlfriend that you're going away for a few days?

Are you coming with us?

Holidays are too short not to enjoy them.

You're a real party animal, that's obvious.

Leon.

Leon!

Where is he?

Where is he?

Where is he?

- What are you doing ? - Huh ?

What are you doing ?

I couldn't sleep, so I…

I'm going for a walk.

Are you leaving?

I don't know.

I don't know anymore, that's it. Maybe I messed up.

I wanted to travel because I needed to go on a adventure.

- Of life, you see?

"The greatest traveler is the one who has managed to come to terms with himself."

What's your thing? With the quotes, huh?

You never say anything and you hide behind other people's words?

- Is that it?

Convenient, huh?

We'll never really talk

I'll never know who you are nor what you're doing here, that's good.

I thought you were incredibly brave to do that.

Extremely brave.

"I left because I didn't want to to see that in your eyes every day…

"what I saw when the neurologist spoke to you."

"Fear, pity, pain…"

- Emile? - "I wouldn't have been able to stand it."

I found a place where I would like to go.

- Oh yeah? - The beach from the film 37°2 le matin .

With the houses on stilts.

I remember, my mother didn't want us to see it.

So, my sister and I watched it in secret.

It's in Gruissan.

- Isn't that in the Pyrenees? - No.

It's not that far, we can go.

- Yes ?

I found that too.

It's easier to write to my mother and sister than letters.

And I'll send it to them when I'm ready.

That's a good idea.

- Oh, fuck.

How are you ?

- Excellent.

Absolutely fantastic.

- Do you want us to stop? - No.

It's all good.

Well, it works, anyway.

Damn.

It's hot.

Good.

Your injury is minor. No head trauma.

Alright.

But, the MRI shows an abnormality.

Further tests are needed.

- You are being transferred to neurology. - No need.

OK? I know what I have, I'm being treated in Paris,

I've already had all the tests done.

- Thank you, but let's go. - Definitely not.

Your discomfort may be related to your medical condition.

But we walked a lot, it was hot, he didn't drink.

I'm doing very well, okay?

It's okay, I can count to five, don't worry.

I can dance if you want.

If it is a neurodegenerative disease,

this can affect other vital functions.

We will contact your doctors to see if there is any change.

Yes,

we know how things have changed.

No treatment, I have a maximum of one year.

I'm not going to waste the little time I have left

taking tests to find out where I stand on my journey as a condemned man.

All right ?

If you go outside, you risk fainting and having complications.

What if I stay here?

Well, nothing.

What's your idea? That I remain locked up in the hospital

to avoid the risk of having to go back to the hospital?

Thank you, Doctor.

Excuse me, goodbye. Sorry.

Have a good day, yes.

Do you have the keys?

♪ You will forget all the pain That you have when you watch me suffer ♪

♪ These difficult moments Where you no longer know what to say ♪

- Come on, turn around. - No.

- What is this smelly thing? - The same herbal cream.

Yeah, well, it stinks.

It's better than the chemical stuff at the hospital.

I'm not setting foot in a hospital.

Is that clear ?

You've already been to the hospital. I explained it to you.

Explain what? You didn't explain anything to me, you didn't say anything…

Or it wasn't clear.

Otherwise, I would have understood.

We were hiking, you fell.

The emergency services took you to the hospital. You signed a discharge letter and you left.

I'm not going to set foot in a hospital, is that clear?

I'm not setting foot in a hospital, OK?

If you don't want to go back, there's a solution

that would allow me to decide for you.

We just have to get married.

- What ? - Of course.

- Hey, this is for you.

You see, you smile sometimes.

- The next one on the left? - Yes.

Here we go.

Oh, damn!

That's a shitty turn signal.

I'll drive.

No, no.

What's wrong?

You're scared, aren't you?

- You shouldn't drive anymore. - Oh, come on! It's fine!

The probability of me having an accident right now,

when I'm going to die in six months…

We are not alone in the world.

I'm fucking fine!

OK ?

I'm doing very well, okay?

I know where the turn signal is. I also shift gears.

So, I don't need a driving instructor, thank you.

Champagne.

Two glasses of champagne to start.

Perfect.

What? You don't like it?

If you don't like it, I'll drink both

and you can drive. - I love champagne.

We can stay here recovering from a hangover as long as you want.

Well, there you go.

Finally, some good news.

It's funny, isn't it?

We're…

We're not often face to face.

It's true, we're always… … side by side.

Here is your order.

- Thanks. - Thank you so much.

And we'll take two glasses of champagne.

To start.

I'm kidding.

- Cheers. - Pardon.

I wanted to tell you about…

about getting married, it's nothing against you.

It's just that…

…at the time, a girl wanted that we get married

and I didn't want to even though I was in love.

And that's it, I lost her.

So, getting married now, right now…

That doesn't mean anything, it's... You see?

No worries, it was for you.

What exactly would that be good for?

This time you were in a state to sign your discharge, but maybe not next time.

They will call your parents, doctors,

then they will send you to Paris and I won't be able to do anything.

If we were married, I could sign the release form,

make decisions.

But it's... up to you.

Would you do that for me?

Yeah.

Why ?

I will have a reason to move forward.

Does it have something to do with Leon?

I don't know, but you shouted that when you were sleeping.

- If you don't want to talk about it… - No.

OK.

Cheers.

Where is the map?

The map?

It's under your buttocks.

Welcome, come in.

- It won't just be the two of you. - Oh yeah?

You have sheets, towels,

and I emptied the wardrobe to put your things in.

That's great, isn't it? Thank you very much.

We're going to be fine.

If you need anything, you call me?

I live 30 minutes from here.

I'll leave you now, I'm getting the paperwork ready.

Mom, what are you doing here? You know you shouldn't go up. Come on.

She thinks I'm already done for.

But I'm here if you need anything.

Thanks.

They are nice. It's good for you to have young people.

She's funny.

Hop !

That's good.

A real bed.

I'll take the mattress from the camper van to sleep on the floor.

It's okay, we've been sharing a camper van for two weeks now.

We can share a bed.

It's been two months, Emile.

And we don't sleep together.

It's true that…

- Yeah ? - … it's extremely comfortable.

Yeah.

So you know that at least one of the spouses must reside in the municipality,

Is that the case?

How long do you have to be there to be considered a resident?

One month.

- Ah. - Well…

We can register for next month, right?

Where do you currently reside?

- In Brittany. - Paris.

No shared residence?

Uh, no. Not before the wedding.

Why do you want to get married here?

Because, well…

Well, actually, it's because…

- We met here. - Here, together.

How long have you wanted to get married?

Um…

- That's still... - Not very…

But why are you asking us so many questions?

Because marriage is not a joke. - Oh no.

It's not a decision you make on a whim,

just because you're on vacation in a village you find pretty.

It's a contract, a lifelong commitment.

Yes.

From what you're saying, I'm not sure you're ready.

Both of you.

Listen, you're right,

we're not ready,

Because, in fact, she…

She is sick, and I want to protect her.

So, if I want to have the right to be there

and to prevent her from being subjected to things she wouldn't want done…

And unfortunately,

in France, you have to be married to do that…

- That's the law.

I just want the television.

I know, Myrtille, but it works with the cable box.

We need to use… … both the remote controls.

We'll try HDMI1.

Oh shit.

Do you know if it's a little boy or a little girl?

We're not expecting a child, Myrtille.

I won't say anything.

OK. Let's try HDMI3, shall we?

Yes.

Damn, that's not true.

What the hell is going on here?

- How are you ? - No, it's a mess here.

It's constantly malfunctioning.

The box needs to be plugged in.

- Did you unplug it? - No.

There, it's working again.

Oh, I missed the weather forecast, so you can turn it off.

By the way, I have…

I've found a job at the ice cream shop near the church.

At Jean's? It's the best.

Ah, that's good.

Why a job?

I'm not going to spend a month doing nothing.

She's right.

You shouldn't depend on anyone.

And besides, it's good that she's working as long as she can.

There's nothing to be found in there, it's …

it's disgusting, there are cakes...

and there's shit everywhere!

We put them under the seat.

I know we put them there, I'm not completely stupid.

There is 20,000 in total.

I've emptied my accounts, there is no need to work.

I'm not doing it for the money, I'm doing it out of necessity.

All right.

- Even Myrtille understands, it's crazy. - Wait.

Myrtille, she's completely lost it.

She thinks we're going to have a child.

Thanks.

Myrtille, what else?

I put them back under the seat, will you remember?

Yes.

I miss travelling,

and so does Robert.

He doesn't feel at home here, and he's bored out of his mind.

We'll leave right after the wedding.

- Are you sure about that? - Yes.

Sure?

Emile, if you want to leave afterwards, we'll leave.

You hear that, old man? We're getting married and then we're out of here!

And the three of us will never leave each other's side until death.

Huh ?

Don't sulk.

I'm not sulking.

It's going to be great!

Just like before!

Have you ever wanted to get married?

No.

But have you ever been in love?

Yeah.

With Leon?

Yeah.

Jo?

Yes?

Thanks.

It's beautiful, but it's too much.

What ?

You look beautiful.

Very beautiful, even.

However, that wont work.

In the name of the law, I pronounce you united in marriage.

Do you have any wedding rings?

- We didn't plan for that. - We didn't think about it.

What is it?

This is my wedding ring and my husband's.

Myrtille that's…

How does this work?

Here, we kiss the bride.

- Bravo.

- What ? - Your ring.

I'm keeping mine, okay?

Two, four…

Emile!

Emile?

I took your device, sorry.

You did the right thing.

Come on, let's go. It's cold.

No, no. We're fine here.

OK.

Look.

Beautiful, isn't she?

You're not smiling, but oh well…

… as usual.

This one's going to be great.

Come on, let's go.

Come on, you can't stay here. It's cold.

Please.

Emile.

Anyway, Myrtille, we're just going for a walk.

We'll be back soon.

OK ?

Take care of yourself, my Emile.

You too, see you later. OK?

- Where are you going? - We're going to improvise.

You're in luck.

Thank you for everything.

Myrtille.

- Be happy. - You can count on us, yes.

What you're doing for him is beautiful. Very beautiful.

If I push it back, like this… I look silly now.

What? I don't look good?

- I'm going to bed. - Already ?

I'm going to the lake tomorrow and I'll get up early.

- In which lake? - Lake Aude.

- Lake of what? - From Aude.

Are you afraid I'll make you late, is that it?

No, I just want to go alone. Move.

- OK. - Move.

- Why are you sulking? - I'm not sulking.

- Yes. You're sulking, aren't you? - I'm not sulking.

- Yes, you're sulking.

[94 missed calls]

Come and take a walk, it'll do you good.

- I get up early. - You're no fun.

Okay, good night.

Damn, you're no fun at all.

Not fun.

Not fun.

Joanne?

Joanne?

What the hell is she doing?

[I went to the lake]

Joanne?

Joanne?

I needed to talk to you. Why aren't you answering? Where are you?

It's not Joanne.

Who are you?

Léon, the father of her son. Can I talk to her?

I don't know where she is.

Where are you right now? Are you with her? Where is she?

- Hello ? - She is at the lake.

At the lake? Which lake?

Lake Aude, I think.

- She'll come back. - No. She's not coming back.

She's going to do something stupid. She is going to join her son.

He was three years old.

He was our little boy.

We were on holiday in the Pyrenees.

I had to keep an eye on him. He couldn't swim yet.

It's my fault.

Today,

it's been a year.

Leon!

Joanne?

Joanne?

I thought you were gone for good, damn it.

Hey, it'll be alright, okay?

We'll stay together now.

Just the two of us.

Okay ?

We're going to continue the journey, right?

We will continue the journey.

You know what, I'll find him up there.

I will find your son up there.

And then, I'll take care of him, okay?

How did you know?

Leon called.

You should call him back.

I can't.

Hey.

Are you ready?

Look.

- She's incredibly beautiful. - Yeah.

I'm glad to be back here.

You said you'd never been.

We came on vacation with my mother and my sister.

I told you.

You know, I…

Yeah?

I wrote to Leon.

The father of my son.

You didn't tell me you had a son.

At the same time, I'm used to it, you never say anything.

You're a bit serious.

Come on, we're going to be late.

Sebastián is waiting for us, we're going for another boat ride.

Yeah.

How are you?

- And you? - Yeah.

Ready for the cruise?

- Thank you for taking us. - You're welcome.

Hi. Emile, nice to meet you.

Yeah, we know each other, man.

Is everything alright?

Yes, why?

I don't know.

- You can tell me. - No, but it's okay.

OK.

I'm going for a swim.

Be careful.

What's wrong with him? He is, uh… autistic?

Yeah.

It's nice of you to take him on holiday.

Emile, please don't go too far.

Don't worry, I'm MNS.

Lifeguard

- Really? - Of course, really.

Last week, I saved a child who was being attacked by a shark.

I had to kill him with my bare hands.

The shark, not the child.

Wait, but…

I'm not going to judge you on that.

Emile?

Emile?

You scared me.

Are you coming back with us?

Seb takes us to another beach to see the sunset.

No, go ahead, I'm staying here.

It's a shame, it's going to be absolutely beautiful.

Go ahead, you don't need me.

Well, yes.

Well no.

I don't need you on my back all the time.

I'm not three years old, you know?

Don't use me to stop you from living.

OK?

Oh, I was looking for you. I came to say goodbye, I'm going home.

OK.

Is it because of him?

No, it's…

listen, I'm sorry.

Thank you for this lovely day.

Will we see each other again?

Shall I call you?

I thought you didn't have a phone?

Oh, fuck.

Damn it.

Emile?

Emile!

Emile!

Damn it.

Emile!

Emile!

Emile.

Sorry.

What happened? Where were you?

At the dock.

He was stealing a boat.

Yeah, that was my boat. But it's okay, no…

He didn't want to do that.

Sorry, but starting a boat that isn't yours is theft.

He has a neurodegenerative disease.

He was autistic, get your facts straight.

I'm nothing, I'm perfectly fine.

I'm outta here, enough of this nonsense…

No, you're staying here, okay? Calm down.

Or you'll all be taken in police custody.

He doesn't know what he's saying.

But he was fully aware of what he was doing when he insulted us.

It's part of his illness.

- Not bad, the illness excuse. - Emile…

Who are you, madam?

I am his wife.

That's my wife.

You know what? We're going out tonight.

It will do us good. Especially you.

Where do you want to go?

It's a surprise.

And give it up for…

Emilie!

Bravo!

And now, "You will forget me".

- No, there's no way?

- But, there's no way? - No…

Come on, come here. Come on.

- No. Absolutely not. Are you kidding me?

Wait, are you kidding?

- Seriously, are you coming? Come on. - No!

- For me. - You'll manage.

- For me?

Thank you. My name is Emile and I…

I would like to say a few words to Joanne who is here, next to me, and who…

Jo, nobody mattered… …as much to me, as you.

No one who understood me like you did.

You…

You took the big egoist I was and…

and that I still am.

And you made me into a better person.

You're an incredible person.

Incredible, yeah.

And just because my brain is a sieve…

…doesn't mean…

I don't know what I'm saying, you know.

So, there you have it, uh…

Before I forget, I…

I would like to…

to ask you to marry me.

Yes.

The renovations were done by volunteers.

- Oh yes ? - The village is gradually being brought back to life.

It's magnificent.

Above all, it's a beautiful human adventure.

If you're staying in the area, spend a few days with us.

That's not a bad idea. We could stay.

If you want, yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Have you been travelling for a long time?

- Uh, two, three weeks. - No.

It's more, much more.

Come to an agreement.

Because it's our honeymoon.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

If we stay, is there somewhere we could park the van?

Yes, but you won't have any water.

That's not a problem, we'll go and get some, we're used to it.

- Emile? - Yeah.

Eat with us.

- Uh… - Yeah!

And here, the small community, Marc, Baptiste, Sophie,

Aurore, Paul and Maëlle.

Welcome, friends. We'll make room for you.

I was a teacher, but I was tired of playing the cop.

She came here. Are the students less annoying?

- It depends.

- And you, Marc, what were you doing?

I was a cop. For real.

- OK.

I just got out of jail, he never gave me any trouble.

But you're a bricklayer, we need you.

- Yeah. - That's true.

I was a nurse.

Oh yeah?

I'm a psychologist.

I am an architecture student. I'm with Paul.

OK.

- What are you doing? - They are on their honeymoon.

Oh, great. Congratulations.

But anyway, that's not a job.

I'm a drug dealer.

No, I'm just kidding.

I connect hotels with travel booking sites.

A fascinating job.

What? What's wrong?

I think your wife thinks that you drink too much.

- No, it's… - She's worried about me.

She thinks I'm her son.

And you, Joanne, what are you doing?

I am a nursery assistant in a school.

Beautiful profession.

How did you two meet?

At kindergarten.

I love this guy.

No, at university.

At university.

What are you doing ?

I can't find the keys.

Who cares, right?

Hey, it's not a big deal, is it?

We'll find them, don't worry.

At worst, we'll find them tomorrow.

"Funny girl, I'm discovering more and more about her."

"Before, I could barely stand her, I've gotten used to her…"

"Mom, Marjo, I love you and I miss you."

"But I don't want to come back, I can't."

"I don't want you to watch me fade away."

"I hope you will forgive me…" "Marriage."

"I didn't think it would affect me like this…" "I can't stop thinking about Laura."

"Jo."

"I'm writing to you, Because one day, I won't be able to anymore."

"One day, you will be exhausted."

"I will be more than a burden."

"If I have ever been anything else."

"That day, you will want to leave."

"Perhaps, I'll be the one to tell you."

"Yet, I'll need you."

"If you leave, I won't hold it against you."

"In any case, thank you for being there for me."

"I still don't know why you did it, but…

"I know you're better than me."

"Emile."

Put on the gloves. That's basic, that's lime.

- After a while, it burns. - All right.

Always move it around.

And you try little by little to come here,

but always make sure they come across each other.

Do you understand?

With the van, we went, like, all the way to Croatia.

- Oh yeah? - Yeah, yeah.

It was insane.

Amazing coves.

Seriously crazy.

My friend who joined us…

- Renaud.

What was he doing?

Never mind. A master in stupid jokes.

Like what?

Like, uh…

- What is yellow and waiting? - Jonathan.

No, a pastis. And he's happy, he keeps repeating it to you.

OK, a long trip, then.

Kids, we've worked hard, end of the day.

Shall we have a drink?

- Totally. - Totally.

This is my favorite moment.

- "Pastis without ice…"

- "Pastis anyway."

I'll take one too.

Emile.

What? It's okay, we worked. All day, there.

- Are you coming for a drink? - No, I'm tired.

If I can…

…allow me to give you a little advice.

You should give him some space.

It needs to breathe, otherwise it won't hold up. And I know what I'm talking about.

I don't think so.

But thank you.

Are you feeling better?

That feels good.

Don't you want to come into my arms?

Hmm?

You're not well, Emile.

You've drunk too much.

Come.

I want to make love with you.

Just once.

- Wait, Emile. - What?

Look.

It works better the right way. See? Clockwise.

Yes, that's clear.

- I'm an idiot. - You're not an idiot.

- No, but I'm tired.

I'll let you finish.

- Yes ? - I'm going.

Emile?

- Where are you going? - I'm going home.

I'm going home. Am I allowed to, or not?

Good.

I'm tired!

Alright, lunch break!

I'm going to get Emile.

- Call him. - We don't have a phone.

I think it's a great idea.

I'm in a hurry.

- He has a neurodegenerative disease. - At his age?

It's rare and not necessarily noticeable. And then things deteriorate.

Except he drove off in the van. It's extremely dangerous.

- If it's serious, why hide it? - He made me promise.

Can I borrow your keys, please?

We need to notify the police at this point…

We're not calling anyone, Isabelle. Will you give me your keys?

I brought you a surprise, the girls.

Merry Christmas.

Hide your joy.

He's handsome, isn't he?

Isa?

There's someone for you.

He says someone stole his Christmas tree.

Oh?

Emile.

- Yes ? - Where did you get the Christmas tree yesterday?

- What ? - Where did you get the Christmas tree?

Which Christmas tree?

Use your chisel to hammer.

Which Christmas tree?

There it is.

We'll find you some furniture.

You'll be better off here when it starts to get cold.

Thank you for the Christmas tree.

The landlord doesn't call the cops.

But anyway, he is in the crosshairs.

I know.

Here, I'll leave you the keys to the van. I prefer that.

You never know.

Well, then, it's…

Great, what you did.

- Super.

- Okay, shall we go home? - This is our home now.

- What, is this our home? - I'm going.

- Uh… - Let's get settled.

Okay, so you decide and I'm supposed to follow, is that it?

There's more space, we'll be better off.

Well, very good.

What do you want me to tell you? So, is it decided then?

My commander.

- Put that one in front. - There?

- Yeah, perfect. - Super.

Thank you, sir.

You still call me sir, I'll make you eat your Christmas tree.

No, I'm kidding. You can call me whatever you want.

- We don't care. - Yeah, OK.

Okay, thank you very much.

And thank you all. Thank you for everything.

Thank you Isabelle, especially.

Yeah, thanks, Isabelle.

And, uh…

And Merry Christmas to all.

Merry Christmas.

- Okay, 30 seconds. - It's almost over.

- Mireille Darc? - Come on !

Bourvil? An imitation of…

- Dancer. - Marilyn Monroe !

That's it, it won't be counted.

Okay, it's our turn. Emile.

- Your turn. - Yes.

Come on, Emile!

- Oh, okay.

- Not bad. - Come on, come on, come on, come on!

Come on, come on, it's easy!

- We need to pick a new one. - Draw a piece of paper.

- Take a piece of paper.

That's a whole different ball game.

- I just did it. - We need to pick.

Pick.

- One minute. - SO ?

- You don't have to… - Who is it?

- Make a rebus if you don't know... - It's good.

- The Thinker, by Rodin? - Shh.

A statue.

A schoolteacher. He is…

- It's the mimes round! - But I know.

- No, wait. - Nevermind.

It's okay, calm down, Emile. Relax.

- It doesn't matter. - Leave it. Baptiste will handle it.

I worked in a department highly specialized neurology in Toulouse.

The boss likes me. I can get you an appointment.

There is no treatment.

Yes, but that's what people say…

Traditional medicine doesn't question itself,

but perhaps there are alternative methods worth trying?

We can believe in Santa Claus.

You can't keep him here indefinitely, can you?

He's not going to the hospital.

I promised him, that's all. I'm going to see what's going on.

- In any case, we lost.

Get rid of it, get rid of all that crap!

That too!

- Emile, that's enough… - It's crap, I tell you!

Emile, stop. Nobody took anything from you.

- Yes! You know it! - What is it?

It's you!

You took it from me. I shouldn't have trusted you.

He thinks money has been stolen from him.

I shouldn't have!

It's under the seat, as usual.

No, it's not under the seat. You're a thief!

Okay? It's not under the seat.

And where are my keys? You give them to me now.

My keys. Give them to me.

- I'll help you look. We'll find them. - My keys.

- You can go. - Yeah.

- I'll stay nearby. - That's kind.

Move aside, move aside!

She was right, my Mom. You're not to be trusted.

You're not to be trusted, you're lying…

Where is my phone?

- Give me back my phone. - We'll go get it tomorrow.

No, I'm leaving right away, okay? Give me my phone number.

We can't leave. We need to decorate the Christmas tree.

Remember?

They're waiting for you there.

Are you coming to decorate it?

Yes.

Come on.

- Are they waiting for me? - Oh, yes.

Hurry.

- I'm going to decorate the Christmas tree. - Yeah.

- Sorry. - Shall we meet at the Christmas tree?

- Don't worry. - Yes.

Courage. Wait, wait.

Isn't that yours?

- It's Emile's.

Courage.

Thanks.

Are you going to sit down? Yes, there you go. Sit, like this.

Shall we form a group?

Tight, yes.

We will celebrate Christmas as many times as necessary, OK?

One, two…

- Come on. - Attention!

Okay, let's go.

- Cheers!

No, no, no. Emile, stop, stop.

Money taints everything. You say that all the time.

No, come on. Come here. You'll catch a cold.

Hey! - Come on, Emile.

Are you wearing that skirt to Renaud's wedding?

Emile.

- Come. - Well, answer me, Laura.

Huh?

Wait.

I sit down for a second.

One second.

I really need to quit smoking.

What is this?

Huh?

I hadn't seen it.

Are you married?

Yes.

Yes.

Twice?

It's my husband's.

Why are you the one wearing it?

He forgets his own. I wear them for both of us.

I hope that…

doesn't forget that he has a wife.

Do you love your husband?

Yes.

Are you coming?

Let's continue the descent.

So, we didn't get to see...

we didn't see the vultures.

We'll be back. Come on.

How are you.

- Did you see? - Yes, come.

Come on, come on.

Please move forward.

He has a fever.

We have to take him.

He caught a cold, it will pass.

I don't want to go.

That's irresponsible.

I don't want to go.

I… I don't want to go.

I don't want to go!

I want to go home.

- Calm down.

I want to go home.

Because, Mom, she must be worried now.

Mom must be worried.

I'm going to call her.

I want to go home now.

- She's coming. - I want her to come and get me.

I want her to come and get me.

She's coming, I've already warned her.

Everything is ok.

- Calm down, Emile.

Emile.

Did you get married?

With whom?

I am married to you.

Can I see him?

No, they're giving him tests.

- The MRI revealed lesions, at the level of… - He has a degenerative disease.

I'm calling his doctors in Paris and take him there.

No, you're not taking him anywhere. He is not in a good condition.

The emergency medical service says you live in precarious conditions.

I will sign a release. I am his wife.

Okay, come on. Sit down and we'll…

we'll let you know when we've found him a room.

Where are we going?

Jo!

You're better off now. It had grown too much.

Come on.

Maybe the apple will work.

Emile.

Come on. Please. Eat a little.

I know what you're thinking.

I didn't say anything.

Joanne.

Joanne!

Jo!

My name is Joanne.

I am with Emile.

No, I…

Sorry, I promised him I wouldn't call you.

I believe he doesn't have much time left.

- Hello, Marjorie. - Good morning.

- I'm accompanying my mother. - I'm Isabelle, come here.

How is he?

The doctor gave him some sedatives. He is asleep.

Are they still with him?

No.

They went to my house. They will return tomorrow morning.

They asked to see you.

I can't.

Why?

I promised him I wouldn't call them.

But you called them and you did the right thing.

I hope so.

The doctor says that…

that this is the end.

I'm going to need your help again.

This is the last time.

You see?

Huh?

The sun is rising.

It's all pink.
