How much is a person worth? That is Antoine's task as an insurance appraiser. When the seemingly perfect world of the family man collapses—his wife leaves him, he loses his job, and he is no longer the great hero to his children—he must reflect on the value of his own life. His assessment is devastating: he has not succeeded in being a better father to his children than his own was to him, and he has fought just as little as his father did for the love of his life. Grégoire Delacourt compellingly tells the story of a man who must hit rock bottom to understand that life is worth living and that true happiness is possible.
