Under pressure at home, 17-year-old Ruben has become withdrawn and remote. So, he voluntarily travels to a remote farm in the inhospitable French Cévennes, where he will spend two months staying with an unknown host family. The young people who stay in Albezon decide for themselves what to bring from their past, and what plans they make for the future. The peace and space Ruben finds there help him to find a way through his trouble.
