An impossible lie. A perfectly fabricated weekend. A storm that washes everything ashore.
Alice is trapped by a ridiculous lie she can't face her parents with. Instead of admitting the truth and being exposed, she concocts the wildest plan: she needs to get a husband, and she needs one immediately.
Her savior is the least likely candidate: Yvon, a grumpy, divorced literature teacher she sees on the train every morning. Alice asks him for one weekend: to play the role of the non-existent, perfect husband in front of her family.
Is the absurd meeting the impossible?
Yvon, surprisingly, says yes. Two strangers who assume the mask of a perfect marriage for a single weekend. Every smile, every touch, every kind word is an act to maintain the ruse in front of her suspicious parents.
But in the midst of the performance, something else awakens. The invented love turns real as quickly as the lie becomes more fragile.
The Storm of Words shows no mercy. It hits them precisely like a hurricane striking the coast, washing ashore with its salty waves the long-buried, most painful truths.
What happens when the weekend is over, but after the storm of words, the two characters can't step back into their old lives? When the lie ends?
