Synopsis

Internationally renowned astrophysicist, Félix Mandel, 40, is very attached to the past, to the great despair of his wife, Lucie, who does not know that he is still in contact with the love of his youth, Wendy Lawrence, and does not want him to keep filling his office with souvenirs. One day, fed up with it, she decides on a spring clean, during which she finds an old coat that had belonged to his father, Lucien, dead for two years. After she gives the coat to a tramp, Félix receives a phone call from... Lucien, furious that his son has disposed of the clothing!
