雖然羅曼和珍妮的婚姻中有很多衝突和怨恨，最終他們和平的離婚。 他們協議女兒瑪德琳由母親撫養，並讓她的父親一起度過每一個星期。 但羅曼有非常強烈的控制慾，並且熱衷這種安排。 起初，珍妮默默忍受，但當她忍受不了羅曼的掌控時，她開始崩潰。

There is a lot of tension and resentment in Romain's and Jeanne's marriage, but their divorce is amicable. They seem to agree on how to raise their daughter, Madeleine - she will live with her mother and spend every other week-end with her father. But Romain is very controlling and manipulative and is poisoning the arrangement. At first, Jeanne seems to cope with being a single parent, but when she has to put up with Romain's tactics she starts to fall apart.
