During the summer holidays, Gaspard, a guitar apprentice and mathematics student, waits for Lena, with whom he says he is in love, to arrive in Dinard, a small seaside resort town in Brittany. But in the meantime, he meets Margot, who becomes his friend and confidant. While she is out clubbing with him, he meets Solène, whom he meets on the beach a few days later. And then Lena finally arrives... "I wanted to show things that would not compromise the future. I wanted to show something that usually escapes the storyteller, be he a filmmaker or a novelist," Rohmer said in an interview with Cahiers.
