American journalist Julia Armand (Kristin Scott Thomas) is on the brink of making big life decisions regarding her marriage and her unborn child. What starts off as research for an article about the Vel'd'Hiv Roundup of Jews by French authorities in 1942 in France ends up as a journey towards self-discovery as she stumbles upon a terrible secret and discovers the heartbreaking story of a Jewish family forced out of their home, a home that is now her own. As she starts to see, live, and breathe through Sarah (Melsuine Mayance), the eldest daughter, her world is turned upside down.
