In a struggling suburb on the outskirts of Paris, a conflict arises between Haby, a community activist, and Pierre Forges, a young doctor who has stepped in as mayor. When Pierre initiates a redevelopment plan that includes the demolition of the building where Haby grew up, she and her neighbors fight to save the structure. This struggle evolves into a political battle as Haby challenges the mayor's ambitions to protect her family and community from displacement.
