Julian has everything-the look, the wealth, and the symbolic, social, and cultural capital. But he also carries an invisible burden: the guilt from his mother passing during childbirth.

A silent but intense pain that comes and goes inside of him, like waves on a shore.
This feeling has been following him all his life, despite the help of many therapists or the support of his two best friends: Ben and Karim, who came from the same social circle as him.
There is also Neliah, a lonely but fun girl to whom he feels extremely attracted, and the diva Alika, an old friend who has been relentlessly pursuing Julian for years - one of the many sources of his anxiety. Feeling more and more trapped, he is on the verge of collapsing while the feelings of emptiness and worthlessness continue to grow inside of him.

But everything is about to change when Julian discovers the woman who could have spared his mother's life, the one destined to be his surrogate mother: the Enigmatic Eleonore.
