Cecilia et Joaquim, jeune couple d'amoureux, sont sur le point de se marier quand Joaquim est renversé par une voiture. Le diagnostic des médecins est sans appel : le jeune homme restera tétraplégique. Cecilia se prépare à affronter l'avenir avec son mari paralysé. Mais ce dernier sombre dans la dépression et préfère couper les ponts. De son côté, Marie, mariée depuis quinze ans et mère de trois enfants, est rongée par un sentiment de culpabilité : elle conduisait la voiture responsable de l’accident. Elle demande alors à Niels, son mari médecin, de se rapprocher de soutenir la fiancée de Joaquim pour la soutenir dans cette épreuve.
