Alexandre Beck is a doctor who has slowly been putting his life back together after his wife Margot was murdered by a serial killer. Eight years on, Alex is doing well, until he finds himself implicated in a double homicide, which has plenty of evidence pointing to him as the killer – though he knows nothing of the crimes. The same day, Alex receives an email that appears to be from Margot, which includes a link to a surveillance video clip that features his late wife looking alive and well. The message warns Alex that they are both being watched. He struggles to stay one step ahead of the law, while henchmen intimidate Alex's friends into telling them whatever they might know about him – the henchmen eventually kill one of them, Charlotte. In the meantime, Alex's sister Anne persuades her well-off wife Hélène to hire a respected attorney, Élisabeth Feldman, to handle Alex's case.

The first third of the film is told from the main character's, Jean-Dominique Bauby (Mathieu Amalric), or Jean-Do as his friends call him, first person perspective. The film opens as Bauby wakes from his three-week coma in a hospital in Berck-sur-Mer, France. After an initial rather over-optimistic analysis from one doctor, a neurologist explains that he has locked-in syndrome, an extremely rare condition in which the patient is almost completely physically paralyzed, but remains mentally normal. At first, the viewer primarily hears Bauby's "thoughts" (he thinks he is speaking but no one hears him), which are inaccessible to the other characters (who are seen through his one functioning eye).

Continuing seventeen years after Arcand's The Decline of the American Empire, the film centres on an exploration of the characters first met in the original film and their children, newly introduced. The older generation are still largely social-democrats and proponents of Quebec nationalism, but both political and economic developments after the “Quiet Revolution” of the 1960s, as well as their own aging, make their left-wing stance seem somewhat anachronistic.

Marc, la quarantaine, marié, père de famille, vit à Aix-en-Provence, près de la Méditerranée. Agent immobilier dans l'agence de son beau-père, il mène une vie tranquille. Alors qu'il fait visiter une maison à vendre, il croise une femme qui veut acheter cette maison pour le compte d’un marchand de bien et dont le visage lui semble familier. Le soir, il pense qu'il s'agit de Cathy, son amour d'enfance, quittée à douze ans lorsque sa famille dut fuir Oran, dans les années 1960, en pleine guerre d'Algérie. Troublé par cette rencontre il se remémore son amour d’enfance et retombe follement amoureux d’elle, oubliant sa femme et sa fille. Il la revoit et a une relation sexuelle avec mais elle le quitte au matin sans lui donner ses coordonnées en lui disant simplement qu’ils se reverront le jour de la signature du compromis de vente chez le notaire. Ils se revoient ce jour là mais après elle disparait de nouveau bien que lui ayant promis de le revoir à son hotel. Marc est troublé et se rend compte qu’il y a des choses étranges car sa mère et sa soeur lui apprennent que Cathy est morte avec son père dans un attentat peu aprés son propre départ précipité vers la France avec ses parents. Il mène son enquête partagé ente espoir et doute car il s’est de nouveau follement épris de celle qu’il croit être Cathy. Au fil de ses découvertes il découvre que « Cathy » est mêlée plus ou moins malgré elle a une opération immobilière frauduleuse montée par un des collègues de Marc et qu’en fait la dite Cathy est en réalité sa meilleure amie Marie-Jeanne (amoureuse de Marc lorsqu’ils étaient tous ensemble) que Marc avait cotoyé mais ignoré car à l’époque il n’avait d’yeux que pour Cathy. Cathy qui est bien morte en Algérie comme sa mère et sa soeur le savaient mais ne lui en avaient rien dit à l’époque car sachant son amour pour Cathy et son désespoir d’avoir du quitter l’Algérie et son amour d’enfance. Quelques mois plus tard alors que Marc est séparé de sa femme et vit seul il revoit Marie-Jeanne (la fausse Cathy) qui lui avoue avoir toujours été amoureuse de lui et a souffert en silence dans l’ombre, elle n’a jamais dit être Cathy mais éprouvant encore de l’amour pour lui elle n’a pas eu le courage de le détromper. Ils se revoient quelque temps plus tard et Marc lui dit qu’il va revenir sur les lieux de son enfance mais elle avoue ne pas en avoir le courage. Le film se termine à Oran où on voit Marc en pleurs qui revient sur la terrasse où il a passé de tendres moments avec Cathy. On ne sait pas comment se poursuivrait la relation entre Marie-Jeanne et Marc mais ils semblent néanmoins très proches lors de leur dernière entrevue avant le depart de Marc pour l'Algérie donc on peut supposer une suite positive a leur relation.
