The young teenagers Raphaël and Rémi are twins, but they aren’t the same. They are very attached to each other, yet they see their fusional attachment crumble while one of them, suffering from an increasingly marked disability, remains a prisoner of childhood. Rémi has fun with his friends, while Raphaël is often alone. His intellectual disability will cause their paths to diverge as they grow older, but now, during one last summer, they go camping together. Surrounded by nature, time seems to want to stand still. In Oasis, her documentary debut, the director shows the affection between the brothers and their growing awareness of inevitable change.
