Sinopsis:
Vic acaba de salir de la cárcel. Decide retirarse a una vieja propiedad familiar cerca de un bosque tranquilo. A los pocos días, Flo, su antigua amante, llega a visitarla. Es más joven y no del todo lesbiana, pues cada tanto se acuesta con hombres en la cantina local. Vic teme que algún día Flo la deje para siempre. A esa prisión al aire libre no llegan visitantes, excepto Guillaume, el oficial que debe corroborar los “progresos” de Vic, y una mujer de semblante amable que pronto resulta ser una sombra del pasado. La nueva vida de Vic y Flo juntas se ve en peligro, e incluso el bosque parece esconder trampas traicioneras.
