It is love at first sight, at least for Georges, who immediately falls for the imaginative and spontaneous Camille. But as quickly as she appeared to him, Camille disappeared again. Georges first has to persuade Camille to this love, but then they dive together into a passionate life far away from all conventions in France in the 50s. Every night becomes an exuberant party, where they dance to "Mr. Bojangles" and entertain their friends with crazy stories. After the birth of her son Gary, he also belongs to this eccentric world as a matter of course. But they both also know the dark side of Camille, the bitter truth that threatens to increasingly destroy their lives. Without further ado, George makes a profound decision in the hope of saving the love of his life and his family one last time.
