A 5x12 mystery comedy based on improvised work.
In the midst of a nationwide insomnia epidemic, a couple in their thirties based in the city move to a family home in the countryside with the hope of finding some sleep.
She's an author, he's an ethnologist, and they're about to experiment with cutting themselves off from all media and social networks. Then some of their relatives show up.
Following a series of national insomnia, Luce and Joseph, a couple from the city, set down their bags in a family home, hoping to get some sleep. Surprised, their cousin Josephine is already there. Joseph, an ethnologist, convinces his partner, Luce, a novelist, to stay for a while in the country house to experiment with disconnecting from social networks, television news and so on, to see if this might not be the solution to their insomnia.
The series began shooting with just this pitch. No script, no written dialogue, just the actors' and actresses' improvisations. Meet Joseph, Luce, Thierry, Joséphine, Charles, Charlotte, Didier and Paulette in 5 totally improvised episodes.
Director Simon Dubreucq has told the story using humour and mystery.
