He needs to be eighteen to read it, so he sets up a scam with his elder friend Sam. Just before getting busted they manage to catch Seb's biological father's name : Pierre Van Hove. After calling up all the Pierre Van Hoves entries in the phone book, Seb decides to seek out one of them who caught his fancy. A marginal guy, manager of a climbing centre by day, gambler by night...Fascinated, Seb cheats and lies in order to win his affection. He meets his daughter Julie, who falls in love with him ! One evening, Seb realises that Pierre can't be his father. He goes back to his original mission, in search of an encounter which is not what he had in mind...
