April 2020. The film director Etienne and his brother Paul, a music journalist, spend lockdown together in their childhood home with their new partners Morgane and Carole. The new housemates have the leisure of time to talk about films and books, reminisce, play tennis and, now and then, do a spot of work around the house. Every room, every object, reminds the brothers of their childhood and awakens memories of the absent figures: their parents, their neighbours… How far apart are the brothers from one another and from the roots they share? As the world around them becomes increasingly unsettling, a sense of unreality – and even of disturbing strangeness – invades their daily lives.

“I had never shared so much in a film. I had never imagined that I would take such an extravagant risk to make a film in my childhood home, and I feared that it would come off as bizarre. But I also felt that filming in that home allowed me to make that leap into autobiography and comedy.” (Olivier Assayas)
