Five years after the summer that bound them together in Barcelona, Xavier and his old circle cross paths again in Paris, London, Saint Petersburg, and Moscow. Romain Duris is Xavier, still entangled with the friends and former loves who shaped that earlier chapter of his life; Kelly Reilly’s Wendy and Audrey Tautou’s Martine return with their shared history intact. As Xavier, William, Wendy, Martine, and Isabelle reunite, the film follows shifting relationships, awkward reunions, and the complications that come with growing older without fully moving on. Split screens and a non-linear structure give the story a restless, overlapping rhythm.
