    • Synopsis
    • Romy hasn’t seen her father nor his side of the family since her parents divorced about 10 years ago. Meanwhile, she has developed a strong chemistry with her mother, founder of the “LOL” Brand.
      In the middle of an existential crisis, she decides to go visit her father in Brussels and lead an investigation on the reasons behind the divorce.

      Anaïs, a close friend of hers - child of divorced parents as well - offers to join and film the reunion. However, this investigation retracing her past will reveal a number of unspoken things. An adventure that will turn out to be liberating, travelling through the Shoah, family secrets and a fierce will to live.
