Regardless of whether you love or hate your father, you only ever have one. So it is best to love or hate him while he is living because, afterwards, it's too late. Léo no longer knows how to bring his family together. Destiny gives him a little nudge: he suddenly passes out. Oh, it's nothing serious. One of those little fainting spells 70-year-olds sometimes get. While he is under hospital observation, his children pay him visits. Individually of course, but they come. When all is said and done, there are some advantages to being sick... Leo thinks up a surgery for himself...a major one! But this delicate operation won’t take place for another three weeks; he has time to take his children on a trip to reconnect with them and enjoy their company. Maybe for the last time! So everyone leaves for Canada. Unfortunately, not everything goes as planned...
