Synopsis

Ex-truckchauffeur André (55) vult zijn dagen met het opknappen van een afgelegen baancafé. Zijn routineuze bestaan wordt opgeschrikt wanneer hij de dakloze tiener Thierry betrapt op een poging tot inbraak. Sterk geraakt door zijn verhaal, neemt André hem onder zijn hoede en gaan ze op zoek naar een spoor van Thierry’s familie. Tijdens de roadtrip groeit niet alleen een bijzondere vriendschap maar ook het besef dat ze elkaar nodig hebben om het verleden te laten rusten


André, 55, lost his only daughter in an unsolved hit-and-run accident. His obsession with finding the person responsible has cost him his job and his marriage. One night, he catches Thierry, a homeless teenager, breaking into his home. Touched by the story of this boy in search of his identity, he takes him under his wing.

Synopsis

After seven years in prison, Rudy Vandekerckhove has set himself two clear objectives: get back to work as a washing machine repairman, and – more importantly – become reconciled with the family he had left behind. But despite the help and support of Denise, a retired hairdresser, and his friend Rachid, his plans fail.
Just when a reunion eventually comes within sight, the past gets the upper hand again, and Rudy has to take the toughest decision of his life.
