    • Synopsis
    • On a winter evening, at a deserted gas station, Sami, a young country musician, meets the beautiful Julia, out of gas and out of cell phone.
      Living alone in his car since his ex asked him to move out because ”it’s been four years”, Sami invites Julia “to his place” and ends up spending the night with her.
      “Four years later”, while Julia works for a start-up active in fair trade. Sami, him, quietly puts the finishing touches to his country duo with his best friend Fernand, 78 years old, alcoholic and exuberant guitarist, living in a medico-social establishment.
      If the bond between Fernand and Sami is in good shape, life with Julia becomes more and more complicated. Over time, the casualness that made Sami’s charm backfired … And you, do you know any couples who last more than four years?
