Marcel Bellmer (Benoît Poelvoorde) moves into the colossal old country manor belonging to the family of his wife and publisher Jeanne (Mélanie Doutey). Settling into his late father-in-law's office, Marcel hopes his new digs will help him overcome a spell of writer's block and compose a worthy follow-up to his beloved hit novel Inexorable. Distraction arrives in the form of Gloria (Alba Gaïa Bellugi), a shy, awkward young woman with no home or family of her own who, by happenstance, connects with Marcel and Jeanne's daughter Lucie (Janaina Halloy). Gloria confesses to Marcel that reading his work, and Inexorable in particular, saved her life during its darkest moments. But as Gloria becomes increasingly involved in the family's affairs, a whole new darkness threatens to consume the lot of them.
