Walter (Gérard Lanvin) lives a very full life: his restaurant is soon to get a star, he still has his old friends Paul (Jean-Hugues Anglade) and Jacques (Wladimir Yordanoff) and he loves to fish. But most valuable to him are his daughter Clémence (Ana Girardot) and his almost obsessive regard for the truth – which also comes with an abhorrence for lying. But when the four of them go on a fishing trip, Paul, a not very prolific writer, falls for Clemence, lets himself be inspired by his feelings for a new book and insists the subject be kept a secret. This is just the beginning of a whole series of lies that affect both the mood of their trip and their seemingly indestructible friendship. And it turns out that Walter has a few lies of his own...
