Aimé has been planning his trip to Morocco for forty years. He has read all the guides, marked all the maps and taken a host of notes. Yet his wife adamantly refuses to go with him. Aimé is finally 93 years old when his grandson, director and photographer, decides to take him to Morocco. Whilst his wife, back at home, talks frankly about her life, the camera watches Aimé rediscover life, the world and others. He talks about his regrets, the missed opportunities and the lessons he has learnt in life. A bittersweet journey full of fleeting happiness, regrets and hopes for the future.
