The director followed precarious workers worried about their future, as well as well-off retirees looking for a change of pace. He met Jean-Jacques, a 55-year-old truck driver who wants to retire soon and spend time with his donkeys.
There's also the story of Jacqueline and Joël, young retirees who haven't come to terms with their working lives, just like Hervé, a 75-year-old former headmaster who juggles multiple activities. Maryse, meanwhile, is a cleaning woman who earns only 650 euros a month. Her retirement is still ten years away, but she's already wondering about her future…
The film takes us to all corners of France and shows us, above all, that all these people have one thing in common: they hope, after a full life of work, to finally enjoy a well-deserved rest.
