Overview
Thibault Demagna, a politician, goes to the house of a family of Albanian refugees. Oana, a nine year old girl, had been lethargic for several months when she learned that her family was being deported. Demagna's skepticism prompts him to investigate. He spends a day with the family in the company of a doctor, convinced that the story is an invention, a legend. He discovers the astonishing truth against his will.
