About
A single bookseller who has chosen not to have children agrees to mind her neighbour's six-year-old son when his mother goes into labour.
Sandra, played by Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, is a single woman in her fifties who runs a feminist bookshop. She has chosen not to become a mother and is not especially fond of children. In the flat next door live Alex (Pio Marmaï), Cécile (Mélissa Barbaud) and their six-year-old son Elliott (César Botti). When Cécile must go to hospital for the birth of their child, Alex asks Sandra to look after Elliott. Sandra agrees, and the request interrupts her quiet routine. It is the beginning of a bond between Sandra, Alex and Elliott.
