Synopsis

At a restorative justice centre, Bérénice works with both victims and perpetrators of crime, fostering dialogue and aiming to repair the harm done. Her goal: is to help these deeply wounded individuals move past their trauma and build a better present and future for themselves.

Bérénice's career choice is deeply personal. Twenty-five years ago, she and her closest friends were irrevocably scarred by a brutal attack at a college year-end party. One friend was killed, and another left quadriplegic. The perpetrator, after serving 23 years of a life sentence, has been paroled and is back in their lives. Bérénice hopes to mediate with him, but can she persuade her friends to participate?

Through the ensuing discussions, confrontations, and shocking encounters, long-held secrets surface. Trust among the friends is severely tested, and a crucial question lingers: Can we truly believe in the rehabilitation of a murderer?
