Nothing much happens here – Lionel’s colleague René retires, Noe’s cat dies – but there are subtle nuances throughout that the time has come for all these people to let go: for Lionel to let Josephine go, for Josephine to leave home, for Noé to free himself from his past. René, who lived only for his job, takes the most drastic step of them all...
