The film consists of five independent episodes. The first deals with the issue of recommendations and job insecurity. The second is on the theme of homophobia, through two casual roommates: a gay boy and a straight, homophobic one. The third episode deals with the theme of the racism of a bigoted young couple in a condominium of immigrants only. The fourth contrasts a Catholic and a Muslim family, urgently called to the nursing home where their respective parents reside, who fled lovingly together. The fifth and final episode talks about adoptions and racism.
