Spoilers ahead
Romain Faubert is a mature man whose chronic hypochondria colors every day of his life. His Dimitri Zvenka believes the root issue is loneliness, not a medical ailment, and tries to help him by arranging encounters with potential partners. After a string of unsuccessful attempts, Dimitri shifts strategy and invites Romain on a trip to an eastern European refugee camp where he sometimes works for a non-profit organization; the idea is that witnessing real suffering might wake him from his self-imposed slumber. The journey promises more than romance: it becomes a test of empathy, resilience, and the courage to see life beyond one’s own worries.
