The fifty-year-old "old boy" Michel has a 17-year-old son and a newborn child, but he has no desire to take on the responsibility of caring for them. Instead, he spends most of his time immersed in the world of motorcycles. The old boy has been divorced, struggled with alcoholism, repeatedly attempted rehabilitation, and has no steady job. Despite not sleeping much, he lives life like a chaotic nightmare, constantly trying to struggle free from it, refusing to be consumed by failure. The director Roy delicately portrays a middle-aged man with a drug addiction, facing various moments of collapse in his life—drug cravings, caring for a newborn, and economic hardships, revealing the life troubles of many invisible individuals in society. He retains the innocence and charm that the protagonist occasionally shows in moments of difficulty, not depicting issues of poverty and addiction through conflict and tension, but rather maintaining authenticity and guiding the audience away from a God’s-eye view, avoiding pity due to tragedy. Michel, a former junkie, is an eternal kid who only dreams of motorcycles and hangs out with his eldest son, Leo, and his buddies. At the age of fifty, he has to deal with the baby he just had with his ex, while trying not to repeat the same mistakes and striving to be a good guy. "I like to think that writing is a bandage to better understand elements and situations in our past and present lives. Maybe making a film allows us to transfigure misunderstandings and to try and find new byways to make it better. I start from real experiences, and I invent fiction in which characters are put in larger-than-life situations."
