Mehdi, un jeune garçon de 6 ans, a été enlevé à Cressonet ce samedi 23 mai aux alentours de 10h... Sous l’ombre entêtante de l’enfant disparu, les chemins de trois femmes se croisent, se heurtent ou se perdent, dans le fol espoir de le sauver. Patience, journaliste, enquête sur les racines de l’inhumanité, échos macabres d’un passé qui la hante. Naomi, ancienne serveuse, brutalement privée de son fils, plonge sans bruit dans les abîmes de la misère et la solitude. Marie, laborieuse fermière d’un autre temps, phare dans la nuit des enfants opprimés, refuse jusqu’à la fin de baisser les armes. Pour survivre, l’une écrit, l’autre se bat, la dernière résiste, et même si parfois elles tombent, si souvent l’une boit, si le soir elles tremblent, ces trois âmes fortes de leurs souffrances se relèvent encore, choisissent de surmonter les épreuves, pour avancer, pour rire, pour aimer, et pour qu’enfin leurs destins liés vous concoctent... un plat glacé.
