Rose, a fiercely independent single mother, has moved to Paris from the Ivory Coast with her two sons. When a relative tries to hook her up with an acquaintance, the young woman replies that she chooses her own men. Despite the heartbreaks, her dead-end job and her subpar living conditions, Rose is a reservoir of energy and attention for her boys, Jean and Ernest, whom she urges to achieve academic and behavioural excellence. Yet she disappears from their lives at regular intervals.
