Mathilde is a widowed mother who is being bullied out of her job by her boss. Thibault has just broken up with the woman he loves because he realises she will never love him back. Over 24 hours they travel through Paris, contemplating their options, never quite meeting and each doing an awful lot of self-indulgent moaning. I'm afraid I struggled to have any sympathy with either of them!
