Un dimanche de messe, autour de l’église Saint-Sulpice, chef-lieu de la grande bourgeoisie parisienne. Le jeune Paul (17 ans), tente de suivre sa mère à mesure qu’elle perd les pédales, jusqu’à échouer chez l’ancien chausseur de son père, où Paul inventera un jeu pour apprivoiser la folie maternelle.

It's Sunday mass at the Saint-Sulpice church, capital of the Parisian bourgeoisie. Paul (17) desperately tries to keep up with his mother as her mental faculties begin to fail her. They end up at Paul’s father’s former shoemaker's, where Paul invents a strange role play scenario to help tame his mother.
