The only idea that still inspires him is to find and film Tony Sacchi, the revolutionary hero of his youth. Through this adventure, Daniel wants to rehabilitate the passionate and committed young man he once was. But, unfortunately for him, Sacchi has become a cynical gigolo. At the end of this tragicomic epic, will Daniel Piron finally understand that he must accept his disillusionment in order to find himself again?
