A cozy dinner among lifelong friends is thrown into chaos when Vincent Leprince, charming, confident, and soon to be a father, casually reveals the name he plans to give his unborn son: Adolphe.
What starts as a joke—or so everyone hopes—hits a nerve instantly. Pierre Salomon, Élisabeth’s husband and a proud Marxist who despises everything tied to fascism, erupts in disbelief. Élisabeth tries to mediate, but Vincent enjoys provoking Pierre just a little too much. Meanwhile, Anna Delambre, Vincent’s pregnant wife, watches the storm with a mix of confusion and amusement. And their childhood friend Claude Barret, always the quiet observer, suddenly finds himself pulled into the argument.
Within minutes, the warm family gathering spirals into a sharp, hilarious, and bitter clash. Political ideologies collide, personal grievances resurface, and long-ignored tensions between siblings, spouses, and friends bubble up fast.
As the night unravels, the name “Adolphe” becomes more than a name—it becomes the match that sets off a chain of confessions, accusations, and revelations that these five people never expected to face at a simple dinner at home.
By the end, this seemingly trivial conversation forces everyone to confront who they are, what they believe, and how fragile even the closest relationships can be.
