With great poetry and originality, Baptiste Beaulieu weaves together the fantastical fates of two people whose crackpot ways seem to magically align.

Eugénie D. is overflowing with imagination and farfetched plans to isolate herself from a world that terrifies her. She knows men are all too quick to clip a woman's wings. Joséphin, a cab driver of few words, was born in a war-torn country. His own skinniness and his mistrust of men weigh him down. To forget his melancholy, he spends all his spare time behind a different wheel: a potter's. When these two wonderfully awkward souls stumble into each other in a Paris train station, their lives are about to be turned upside down. An unlikely encounter, a love story for the ages.
