Full plot (contains spoilers)
Diane, the head of a communications company, disappears at sea. Her sailboat is found adrift. Before long, her once-thriving company is adrift too. Most of its clients withdraw their confidence in the three young associates, who find themselves forming a triumvirate to save the company. At this point, a delicate case comes their way: that of a female whistleblower denouncing the collateral effects of a drug that is about to come into widespread use. Should they take on the case? Once they have made their decision, the three associates find themselves caught up in success, doubts, and twists of fate. This “adventure” leads all three to break away from their everyday lives and build new lives on new foundations. The final image is of their boss walking along a beach in Brittany.
