Every morning in Brussels, the orphan Harry, to go to wash the dishes, takes the tram driven by Jeanne who, by chance, lives in the same building: she is extroverted and cheerful, he is shy and clumsy, with a trauma behind him that prevents him from saying "I love you".
They attract and repel each other, dragged by a feeling that goes beyond everyday life, but drama is always lurking.[5]
