In Barcelona, Camille, Eva, Ariane and their friend Nico are out as lesbian and gay to almost everyone, and they decide that the time has come to tell all their parents about their sexual orientation. To make it possible, Camille's liberal mother hosts a party at her home with the unsuspecting parents invited.[1]
