Content : At Bel Air Nursing Home, the arrival of Violette, a new resident, and Capucine, a trainee care assistant, brings a small breeze of change. A moving friendship blossoms, uniting two hearts quietly wounded by life.

Capucine has decided to do her internship at a nursing home. She changes her wig colour to match her mood and as she discovers the ins and outs of being a care assistant.

Violette, on the other hand, is a new resident, feeling lost and bewildered by her arrival at the home. Moved by Violette’s distress, Capucine goes to great lengths to bring a smile back to her face.

Their meeting is set to shake up the quiet life of the nursing home and awaken their long‑dormant hearts!
