October 1962, the height of the Cuban missile crisis… Norbi, 12, lives in a small industrial town typical of southern Luxembourg. His father, very authoritarian, owns a bookstore-stationery that also serves as a store for religious items. That year, Norbi will be confronted with mysteries about sexuality, religion and war. Norbi will discover a new world, for him, it's time to show that he is no longer a child. Will Norbi obey?
