Spring and summer of the year 2000. Gwenaëlle and Angéla are friends. They’re seventeen and eighteen years old. They live in the same town, in the Paris suburbs. Soon, it will be the summer holidays. At the local Youth program of their town, they submit their « project ». It’s going to be picked, funded and they’re going be able to make it. It’s a journey through France, during which they’ll take pictures of houses. They’ll ask the people to stand in front of their homes and to take themselves a picture. An exhibition is
organized for the school start at the town hall. Bursting with curiosity, with their mighty friendship, they’ll have encounters and will live in different backgrounds. They’ll wake up, open up, and multiply various paths of life. Many
adventures will happen to them, and some of the people they meet will make them stay for several days in a same spot…
