Contre le silence

On a winter night in a ski resort in the French Alps, Mona, a young Italian seasonal worker, has locked herself out. She is struggling in the cold while looking for shelter. Her nighttime journey takes her near an unknown presence.

The entire region knows the Berthet family. When people talk about them, they call them ‘gypsies’. Larissa Berthet houses her entire tribe in her home, including Yvan, a local orphan whom she took in and raised as her son. When Yvan finds out that he is to become a father, he decides to become a ‘normal’ man. However, a local bipolar dealer, a jealous cop, an unstable ex and a Machiavellian stepmother have other plans. Luckily, his family is there to support him. But when you’re a Berthet some things just aren’t as simple as they seem.
