Anna (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) is a filmmaker in her forties whose perfect life turns suddenly upside-down after her husband Luca (Riccardo Scamarcio) tells her that he wants to end their marriage. Unable to deal with the loss, and Anna at the verge of a nervous breakdown, she moves to her family house for a summer with her relatives, including her parents Louisa (Marisa Borini) and Bruno (Bruno Raffaelli), her sister Elena (Valeria Golino) and her husband Jean (Pierre Arditi), Anna's adopted child Celia (Oumy Bruni Garrel), and finally Nathalie (Noémie Lvovsky), a screenwriter who travels there to work with Anna on her next movie. At the same time that the past and the secrets of the family start to come up, the house staff have their own agenda. The gardener Jacqueline (Yolande Moreau) and her husband and the pool cleaner Serge (Bernard Nissile) try to keep the gardens safe and sound from the wild boars of the zone while the butler Gérard (Joël Clabault) and his wife and housemaid Pauline (Guilaine Londez) look to find a job for their lazy son François (Brandon Lavieville).
