Thirty-something married teacher Chanelle, who is frustrated by the limits of her teaching role, has a run-in with a new school student, Sandrick. He then turns up in her French class.
Upset by recent events, Chanelle tries to gain control of her own desires and the situation. She is dangerously undermined in her intentions by her husband Jeff's generous impulses.
Sandrick is unable to cope, manipulating a school friend Mégane to gain Chanelle's attention. Patricia goes to mediation hoping to gain control of the inheritance.
To protect his children, Jeff encourages Chanelle to defend herself and she must make a decision for her own future and for that of her victim. For once, Patricia tries to help Sandrick.
Chanelle realises that the support of those close to her is eroding fast. Can she take a different view of events? Overwhelmed, Sandrick is spiralling towards a crisis.
