A young woman named Séraphine checks into a Parisian hotel with her ailing mother, having arrived to attend the 1867 International Exposition. When she comes back to the hotel with her mother's medication, she finds their room vacant and none of the staff remembers ever seeing her or her mother checking into the hotel. Séraphine then embarks on a quest to uncover the mystery of her mother's disappearance and prove her own sanity.
