Camille est infirmière dans un hôpital public, mais ce n'est pas tout. Elle est également championne de construction de châteaux de sable. Alors qu'elle entreprend de récupérer les jours de congé qui lui ont été retirés et qui devaient lui permettre de participer au grand concours annuel, elle doit s'occuper de Madame Berthier, une patiente âgée qui, faute de lit disponible, se retrouve reléguée dans le couloir. Ensemble, elles affrontent le chaos de cette journée dans un hôpital en tension, tout en musique.

Camille is a nurse in a public hospital, but that's not all. She is also a champion sandcastle builder. As she sets out to recover the days of leave that were taken away from her and that were supposed to allow her to participate in the big annual competition, she has to take care of Madame Berthier, an elderly patient who, due to a lack of available beds, finds herself relegated to the hallway. Together, they face the chaos of this day in an overcrowded hospital, all in music.
