Eugénie D. is overflowing with imagination and farfetched plans to isolate herself from a world that terrifies her. She knows men are all too quick to clip a woman's wings. Joséphin, a cab driver of few words, was born in a war-torn country. His own skinniness and his mistrust of men weigh him down. To forget his melancholy, he spends all his spare time behind a different wheel: a potter's. When these two wonderfully awkward souls stumble into each other in a Paris train station, their lives are about to be turned upside down. An unlikely encounter, a love story for the ages.
