Since the death of his mother, 11-year-old
Valentin and his father live alone on their farm. That summer the young boy spends most of his time with their neighbour Oscar, a beekeeper. Then Oscar meets Félicie on the internet, and the solemn but beautiful woman moves in with him. Young Valentin is fascinated by her beauty, but is shocked to find her in the arms of his father one night. Unable to accept her betrayal, and tormented by guilt and desire, Valentin is at a loss what to do next.
