Entre hôtels minables et restaurants bas de gamme, elle rencontre le beau Dubel, un imprésario sur la touche. Dubel engage Rose au pied levé afin de remplacer Hermine Zibeline pour une tournée en région parisienne - dont la première a lieu le lendemain soir à Tremblay-en-France - avec "les célèbres Billy Boys de Broadway". Un rêve sans limite prend alors forme dans l'esprit déjanté de ces indomptables ringards, à qui Dubel promet, l'année prochaine, l'Olympia...

D'un côté de la cloison, un créateur de casse-têtes, investi, taciturne et misanthrope qui ne peut travailler que dans le calme complet. De l'autre, une jeune pianiste fraîchement installée dans son nouvel appartement. Elle prépare un concours important et doit beaucoup répéter pour le réussir. Entre eux, une cloison minuscule, créant une cohabitation forcée, sonore et aveugle. Après de multiples tentatives de se repousser, ils se mettent d'accord sur des périodes d'utilisation de leur espace sonore. Le temps aidant, ils décident « de vivre ensemble » sans se voir. La perplexité de leurs entourages proches se mue en reconnaissance. La date du concours se rapproche et leurs relations se tendent.
