Switzerland, 1969, a young French journalist visits an opera singer in her changing room. Although he claims that he is only there to interview her, his questions put the diva off guard, drawing painful memories too close to heart. Both victims of the war, they discover they have a lot more in common than they first suspected, and during the night they will learn a certain truth about themselves that will make them completely re-evaluate their lives.
