A warm, picaresque road movie about an unlikely friendship between a homeowner and a burglar, built on chance encounters and human connection across Belgium.

Yvan finds a burglar in his house. After some consideration, Yvan decides not to call the police and to drop the lad near the nearby city but he ends up giving him a lift home to his parents. Together, they travel through Belgium and meet some extraordinary people and find themselves in ditto situations.
