Over two decades later, in an attempt to confront and come to terms with her past, Clotilde returns to the island of Corsica with her husband and teenage daughter. However, her journey takes an unexpected turn when she receives a letter from her mother, as if she were still alive.

Clotilde finds it impossible to believe that her mother could have survived the tragic accident that claimed the lives of her parents and brother.
