Recently orphaned, eight-year-old Violette goes to live with her uncle Régis, a maintenance worker at the Palace of Versailles. Shy and withdrawn, she immediately rejects him and decides not to speak to him at all.  Set behind the scenes of the former royal palace, the film follows the slow, sometimes awkward relationship between a stubborn child and an unlikely guardian as they learn to cope with loss and adjust to life together.
