Plot

It is a film about motorway, tourists under transhumance, concrete picnic tables, lines to the restroom, tepid melon slices and carwashs. It is a film about a man who wants to leave and a kid holding him back. It's a summer's film.

Summertime, August. Holidaymakers take the motorway to the south. Philippe has a professional appointment in Lyon. His old mate Aurélien is driving to Marseille with Balthazar, his son. No problem, they'll drop him. Sweat, icecreams melting on children's clothes, rest areas, concrete picnic tables, lines to gas station's restroom, playgrounds, tepid melon slices, gazoline smell, couldn't care less of Philippe's desperation. Then Philippe wants to leave. Balthazar holds him back.
