Overview
Herve, the head of a press agency, is traveling fast down a road headed in only one direction: self-destruction. He is an alcoholic, and his drinking is wrecking his marriage, family and career. In desperation and still in denial, he checks into a detox clinic in Geneva, his last-chance saloon. There he meets a group of fellow sufferers and one person in particular, a young woman named Magali, who help him to see life other than through the bottom of an empty bottle.

00:09:54 When I drink I feel normal, and...
00:13:33 Two weeks before my period.
00:18:43 I'd like to invite you to take a test.
00:21:32 I know that for sure, because
00:24:26 At home, work or elsewhere, do you have a secret stash?
00:28:08 I'm the Marquis of "Khara".
00:31:21 Sorry Hervé, but I disagree.
00:35:37 so you can access it when you doubt your disease.
00:38:25 - Have you been drinking, sir? - No... Well, I have...
00:40:59 The question is for Hervé. Why'd you tell it like that?
00:45:43 - You can't turn it off? - No, never.
00:49:18 who will rise and do the same.
00:52:39 What got into you?
00:56:18 I no longer wonder where you are, if you're ok.
01:00:24 I slept with a man my whole life for a fitted kitchen.
01:07:00 I'll tell you about my maternal grandfather, Ferdinand.
01:10:25 But I became sad. Then guilty.
01:15:10 - We're with you. - Stay sober.
01:18:50 Hi.
01:22:16 You're staying here.
01:24:56 She makes me feel good.
01:28:34 Hervé, you're about to do your 24 hours.
01:34:37 Let's do the car game!
