Julien, 17, is wheelchair-bound due to cerebral palsy. Despite their love for him, his family is gradually falling apart under the strain of dealing with his disability. In a bid to bond with his father, Julien challenges him to participate with him in the Ironman race in Nice (French Riviera), a triathlon in which his father has previously competed.

Julien attempts to bridge the emotional distance between himself and his father by challenging him to a grueling Ironman triathlon. This intimate portrait captures a family fracturing under the weight of caregiving while searching for a shared sense of purpose.
