Adaptation of Michel Houellebecq's novel. François, a university professor "in the midst of an existential crisis", witnesses an astonishing and totally unprecedented upheaval. In a France close to our own, the rise to power of the leading Muslim party is confirmed. Western civilization as we know it is in its final throes.

Desire and love resurface, giving new meaning to his life and shaking his own values and convictions...
