In this romantic comedy, Parisian newlyweds travel to Poland for their honeymoon, which awkwardly doubles as a bid to reconnect with their Jewish heritage. Anna and Adam (Judith Chemla and Arthur Igual) celebrate their nuptials with a trip to their family homeland, leaving their newborn with grandparents. While Anna is eager to trace her roots, Adam reluctantly attends a memorial for an ancestral village destroyed in the war. Unable to bridge past and present in this strange yet familiar land, the journey does not go as planned.
