    • Jean-Paul, recently retired, is a hypochondriac… Anne, his wife, is cheating on him with a former office colleague… His daughter Cathie, divorced and mother of a five-year-old son, lives with Philippe, a "fine" young man whom Mathieu, Cathie's gay brother, calls the "retard". After Jean-Paul discovers a small spot on his hip, the family balance literally implodes. Cathie announces that she's marrying "the retard", Mathieu gets dumped after his hesitation to invite his lover to Cathie's wedding, and Jean-Paul accidentally learns that Anne, his wife, is cheating on him. Arguments, settling of scores, insults… Jean-Paul, Anne, Cathie, Mathieu and Philippe are spared nothing! And together cross through a small zone of turbulence
