In Nazi-occupied France in the 1940s, a widowed school teacher, Odile (Emmanuelle Béart), races to get out of Paris with her two children, Philippe (Grégoire Leprince-Ringuet) and Cathy (Clémence Meyer). Destruction and mayhem in the city streets force the family to flee into the forest, where they meet a 17-year-old boy, Yvan (Gaspard Ulliel), who leads them to a safe house. Once there, Odile and Yvan explore their sexual feelings for each other, even as the Nazis pursue them.
