Éléonore is travelling through France as her car unexpectedly breaks down. It is thus by pure chance that the she arrives at Camping du Lac, a campsite in the woods near a wild and mysterious lake in Brittany. The idea is to stay there a few nights, just enough time to fix her vehicle, but something about that small community attracts her and convinces her to stay. Balacing on the borderline between fiction and documentary, the films offers up a diary gradually overtaken by fiction to explore the founding narratives imbuing a land which awakens the director's imagination.
