Every family has their secrets. Some are good, while others can devastate and tear the family apart once they are revealed. This is a story about a brother ans sister who are confronted with a family secret about a beautiful mother; a secret shrouded by taboo and how it effected their past and present lives.
Antoine Rey gives his sister Melanie a surprise weekend at the seashore resort where they had spent many happy summers as children until the mother's sudden unexpected death. They hoped by going back to the resort they could find the answer and come to terms with her death. At the end of the weekend they are no closer to the answer. On the way home, Melanie remembers something about her mother and as she begins to tell Antoine, she becomes highly emotional and causes an accident and is critically injured.
Antoine can not leave the unresolved matter alone. He visits Melanie often but continues to seek answers to their mother's death. This is not his only problem. He is a torn man, unhappy in his career, life, and relationships with his divorced wife and children and with Angele, the colorful unconventional mortician who he met in the hospital where his sister is recovering.
Can these two recover and begin to lead normal lives?
