Plot

[edit]

Long a victim of her violent and alcoholic husband, Rose Mayer decides to choose her own destiny, and kills him by crushing him with their car after leaving prison (for having crushed a girl with the same car). She leaves the Walloon countryside and joins her homosexual son in Brussels, who left the family hell on the day of his 16th birthday. But freedom does not erase guilt and family stories are not without contradictions. Will Rose find her place in his new life?
