Marie (Bérénice Bejo) and Boris (Cédric Kahn) have been married for 15 years and have two children, the twin girls Jade and Margaux (Jade and Margaux Soentjens). But there is not much left of their love after all these years, everyday stress and alienation prevail in the home they share. The couple files for divorce and wants to separate as soon as possible, but this is not easy, because Marie has put all her financial resources into her own home and Boris does not earn enough to afford his own apartment. So he moves onto the sofa in the living room, and Marie and he have to find a way to continue living together under the same roof, despite having signed divorce papers, without completely breaking up.
