In the course of a family meal, Cédric - a thirty-something who still lives with his parents - learns that his sister is pregnant.  Everyone else is delighted by this news but he is filled with resentment and his bitterness soon turns to rage.  Himself a victim of prejudice, Cédric does his best to sour the atmosphere, goaded by paranoia and a deep-seated sense of injustice.  How can the family regain its equilibrium in the face of such a fierce onslaught...?
