Noah has been a stay-at-home dad to Edgar (10) since
birth while his wife Soraya has been working her way up
in an Oil & Gas company. Promotions have always made
Soraya horny, but Noah is growing fed up with her new
S&M kinks. So, when Edgar has yet another eco-anxiety
attack, he takes him on an eco-retreat, conveniently
escaping home. The retreat soothes Edgar, but it turns
Noah’s world view upside down as he discovers the
power of hugging. Soraya, convinced that the retreat
is a cult, crashes the patchouli party and drags her family
back to safety.
Coming home is hard on Noah who feels bossed around
by Soraya while Edgar goes back to sulking. Noah’s
attempt at a revolution is a rather unproductive vegetable
patch and a self-hygiene strike, which sends Soraya closer
to her arrogant male assistant: JK. When Noah realises his
marriage is at stake and his attempts to curing his son’s
eco-anxiety are useless, he returns, defeated, to his old
role. But a flamboyant eco-action of Edgar’s causes Noah
to have a breakthrough: he understands that to become
his true self, big sacrifices must be made. He leaves
Soraya, thus shattering her “Have-it-all” myth to pieces.
When faced, alone, with the violence and emptiness
of her job, Soraya chooses love and Noah’s gentler life
proposal instead.
