Vincent et Antoine, deux fans des années 1980, dirigent une petite société de spectacle qui fait tourner des sosies dans toute la France. Entre déboires sentimentaux et caprices de leurs pseudo vedettes, l’affaire finit par péricliter. À la veille du dépôt de bilan, ils retrouvent un carton de vieux 45 tours : Jeanne Mas, Jean-Luc Lahaye, Lio, Desireless, Peter & Sloane, François Feldman, Début de soirée, Images, Cookie Dingler, Sabrina, Gilbert Montagné… tous les tubes des années 1980 ! Immédiatement, l’étincelle jaillit : pourquoi ne pas faire remonter sur scène les vraies stars des années 1980 ? Les deux producteurs partent alors en quête de ces vedettes oubliées, et montent une tournée de concerts qui débutera dans la galère avant de cartonner en province et triompher au Stade de France.

In 1958, Françoise Sagan is 23 years old. Her first couple of novels have made her rich and famous. She lives an easy life, filled with sex and debauchery, surrounded by her group of friends. On the 8th of August that year, at the Casino in Deauville, she gambles her last chips on the number 8 and wins 8 million francs, with which, a couple of hours later, she buys the house which she rented, in nearby Honfleur. This makes her the owner of that property, and she vows that she will never leave the place. Why is she, 40 years later, living there all alone, as a recluse? What events made a young promising novelist end up all alone, without the ones she loved, and used, all those years?

The film opens on the evening of 24 April 1974, as a young conscript soldier (Daniel) kisses farewell to his girlfriend (Rosa) before boarding a train from Lisbon back to his Army base at Santarem. Both are fearful that he will be sent to fight in the Portuguese Colonial War. Late and depressed, Rosa then travels by tram to Antonia's flat to babysit for her daughter Amelia. On arriving back (late) at his base, Daniel is oblivious to the imminent coup. Captain Salgueiro Maia arrests the base commander at gunpoint and orders the soldiers to assemble on parade in the middle of the night; he asks them to come with him to Lisbon to overthrow the government. Maia's erudite but cynical and cautious colleague Major Gervasio refuses to take part, as does Lieutenant Lobão.
