In the sweltering heat of a Marseille summer, three roommates while away their days on their balcony, observing and influencing the lives of their neighbors with mischievous amusement. However, one night, after sharing drinks and stories late into the evening, a sudden and violent event shatters their carefree existence and plunges them into a terrifying ordeal from which they struggle to escape.
