Four fathers meet in the secondary school gym, where the headmistress has summoned them after a bag containing a suspicious white powder was found amongst their sons’ belongings during a skiing trip. Each of them arrives with different excuses and the conviction that it is their child who is innocent. What’s more, the headmistress knows that a local councillor is trying to secure her job for his mistress, and she suspects that the whole situation is part of a campaign against her. The meeting thus quickly descends into a series of misunderstandings, accusations and increasingly absurd situations. One afternoon that spirals completely out of control for everyone involved.
