After landing the contract to build an Olympic stadium, hard-driving executive Vincent Poirel moves ahead with a design that actually belongs to a young architect, Simon Variot. When Simon rushes to the construction site to confront him, Poirel runs him over. Simon dies, then returns in the body of Poirel’s young son, leaving Poirel trapped in the same house as the man he wronged without realizing it. The boy’s sudden hostility turns family life and office life into a mess as Simon tries to fight back from inside a child’s body, while Poirel scrambles to protect his deal and make sense of what is happening around him.
