The story begins as George Sand quits her marital home and arrives in Paris with her two children. Meanwhile, the young poet and dandy Alfred de Musset is busy making a name for himself both as a womaniser and a talented poet and critic. Sand and Musset first meet at a literary dinner and quickly recognise in each other a like minded love of literature.

Le documentaire retrace l'itinéraire de Patrick Dewaere, depuis ses débuts à l'âge de 4 ans jusqu'à son suicide, le 16 juillet 1982. On découvre ainsi qu'il appartient à une famille d'artistes dont les parents n'hésitent pas à mettre leur progéniture sur les planches et les plateaux de cinéma ou de télévision. Le métier connaît alors « les petits Maurin » que la maman, Mado Maurin, sait adroitement placer auprès des producteurs et réalisateurs. Le documentaire alterne ainsi des extraits de films et téléfilms et des entretiens avec son agent Serge Rousseau, Miou-Miou, sa fille Angèle Herry-Leclerc, ses épouses Sotha et Elsa-Malvina Chalier ainsi que le témoignage de plusieurs réalisateurs qui l'ont fait tourner parmi lesquels Bertrand Blier qui l'a reçu chez lui la veille de son suicide et avec lequel il a longuement dialogué.

The plot is based around a successful, yet very shy painter Yann (Pierre Richard) who is in love with a married woman Florence (Fanny Cottençon). When he finally manages to have a date with her in his apartment, he has to face big problems. His neighbour Boris, another painter (and an artist maudit) who is extremely jealous towards his young wife Éva, leaves his flat without his suitcase, and when Éva, dressed only in lingerie, runs out of the door to let him know, a draft of air closes her door and she has to ask Yann for help. Unfortunately, that is just the moment when both Boris and Florence turn up. The story gets even more complicated as Florence's husband also comes to Yann's flat, and when Yann, when joking, mistakes a toy gun for a real one, and lightly injures Boris. But eventually all comes to a happy end.
