Michel, a fifty-year-old man-child, has a 17-year-old son and a newborn but doesn't want to take on any caregiving responsibilities. Instead, he spends most of his time immersed in the world of motorcycles. This former boy has been divorced, struggled with alcoholism, and gone through rehabilitation multiple times, yet he is still without a stable job. Despite not sleeping much, his life feels like a chaotic nightmare, constantly trying to struggle awake and not let himself be drowned by failure. The director, Roy, delicately portrays a middle-aged man with a drug addiction, facing various breakdown moments in his life—drug cravings, caring for a newborn, and financial troubles—highlighting the struggles of many invisible people in society. He captures the protagonist's occasional innocent charm amidst challenges and avoids depicting poverty and addiction through conflict and tension, instead maintaining authenticity and guiding the audience away from a godlike perspective without evoking pity through 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 fifty, he has to deal with the baby he just had with his ex and struggles not to repeat the same mistakes while trying 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."
