Daniel, a young pianist, learns that his birth mother is still alive. Becoming nostalgic, he remembers his childhood. Alone with Mother Nature and his memories, he looks for this woman, hoping to find if not the truth at least consolation.

The middle-aged titular heroine (Masiero) of this bare-bones, Dardenne-esque debut has certainly fallen on hard times: Living between her car and a storage shed, working a part-time job as a hotel chambermaid, and trying against all odds to obtain public housing, Louise scrapes by on a day-to-day subsistence that’s only a few Euros away from skid row.
