Piotr est victime d'un choc frontal lors d'un accident de la circulation. S'ensuit une perte générale de son intellect. Après un coma suivi d'un traitement en milieu médicalisé, il va devoir se reconstruire au quotidien, entre les tentatives de remémorisation du passé et les nouveaux acquis qui constituent le processus d'une renaissance quasi complète.
