Synopsis: Lucas and Mathias, eight-year-old sons of lumberjacks in the Vosges forest, share an unbreakable bond. One tragic day, while driving down the mountain, Lucas’ father fatally collides with Mathias, who is cycling. From the back seat, Lucas watches in horror as his father disposes of his friend’s lifeless body in a ravine. A single glance reveals the grim truth: Lucas must carry the weight of this terrible secret forever. Twenty years later, Lucas returns to the area for his parents’ funeral, accompanied by his girlfriend and his best friend. He unexpectedly encounters Mathias’ father. Guilt-ridden, Lucas agrees to join him for coffee. However, as old wounds are reopened, Lucas and his friends find themselves ensnared in a web of vengeance and retribution from which they may not escape unscathed.
