Summaries

An old man in dressing gown and slippers is abandoned by his family on an area of highway while on vacation. He later finds himself in a hospital where a nurse, Gégène, calls him Mischka.

Summer. The beginning of the holiday season. The heart of France. Four people are united by chance. Or by fate. An old man, Mischka; his nurse; a teenage runaway and a rocker called Joli-Coeur spend several days together on their journey to the coast. Several days to learn the difference between the family you are born into and the friends you choose.—Happy_Evil_Dude
