Zorah, pour faire le deuil de son fils, mort en France, décide de se rendre à Marseille pour comprendre ce qui s'est passé. Elle réussit à devenir la nounou de Céline, la sœur de François, l'amant et meurtrier de son fils. François est en prison et attend son jugement. Elsa et Stéphane forment un couple à la dérive qui vit toujours chez les parents de ce dernier. Elle se prostitue à l'occasion et Stéphane vit de petits boulots qu'il ne réussit pas même à remplir. À la suite d'un accident, Elsa se retrouve aux urgences où Stéphane vient la chercher. Il rencontre Pierre, un truand local, qui, frappé par son extrême ressemblance avec un ami incarcéré, lui propose de prendre sa place en prison lors d'une visite au parloir. Stéphane, hésitant, finit par accepter la proposition contre une forte somme d'argent. Laure, une jeune adolescente de 16 ans, tombe amoureuse d'Alexandre, un jeune délinquant au grand cœur qui se met fréquemment dans diverses bagarres. À la suite de l'une d'elles, il est emprisonné pour coups et blessures sur les forces de l'ordre. Laure pour pouvoir lui rendre visite en prison trouve le subterfuge d'être accompagné par Antoine, un jeune interne en médecine qui devient son ami.Actors
