In 'Une belle vie', Emma and Agathe Delorme are sisters who have grown up very close, although they are very different. Agathe, the youngest, has always occupied an important place in Emma's life. After five years of silence, Emma summons Agathe to the family holiday home to empty it after the death of their grandmother Mima. The Delorme sisters have a week to reconcile and share everything they have missed. Will they manage to repair the past? In the beautiful summer of the Basque Country, where their childhood comes to life, the strength of their story resonates. A moving and irresistible tale full of laughter and tears.
