In present-day Montreal, a renowned DJ, Antoine, recently divorced and in love again, still feels a strong connection to his ex-wife, who hopes to win him back. Meanwhile, in Paris in 1969, single mother Jacqueline loves and cares unconditionally for her son Laurent, who has Down syndrome. When he falls in love with a classmate, Jacqueline makes a life-altering decision. These two seemingly unrelated stories of love and separation are linked by the melody of the jazz album Café de Flore.
