Summer Time

Three brothers and sisters gathered in the countryside to celebrate the seventy-fifth birthday of their mother Hélène (Edith Scob), and three generations of the family were enjoying themselves. After dinner, her mother mentioned to her eldest son Frédéric (Charles Berling) how to deal with his inheritance after his death. Frédéric was a little irritable and did not want his mother to mention this topic. However, Hélène insisted on arranging the whereabouts of all the objects. She told her son that the ancestral house would be sold, and what to do with the paintings of her uncle, the painter Paul, whom she respected throughout her life. Frédéric insisted that the house would be preserved and passed down to the children. A few months later, Hélène passed away. Frédéric, who had been living and working in Paris, hoped to keep the ancestral home. However, his brother Jérémie (Jérémie Rénier), who is about to move the family to China to work, and his sister Adrienne (Juliette Binoche), who is about to get married and start a family in New York, agreed to sell the ancestral home because they would not return to Paris. Everything is as mother said
