A 50-year-old business man Léopold (Bernard Giraudeau) arrives home with 20-year-old Franz (Malik Zidi), whom he has just met. Franz is not quite sure why he agreed to come home with Léopold as he is supposed to be meeting his fiancée Anna, but he accepts drinks from Léopold and they begin to get to know each other. Franz tells Léopold that he is not sure whether or not he loves Anna, that he does not really enjoy sex with her, finding more pleasure in books, theatre and life in general. Léopold asks him if he has ever slept with a man. Franz says he has not, but describes a dream where a man comes into his bedroom in an overcoat and has sex with him. Léopold says that although he once lived with a woman for seven years, he has always found sex with men more exciting. They kiss, and Léopold tells Franz to get undressed and into bed. He then appears beside the bed in an overcoat ready to re-enact Franz's dream.

Pujol est excédé par le climat social exécrable qui règne dans son usine. Le député-maire communiste de la ville, Maurice Babin (Gérard Depardieu) ne se prive pas de souffler sur les braises. Un jour les ouvriers déclenchent une grève sans préavis qui débouche sur la séquestration de Pujol. Il fait une grave attaque cardiaque. Dans l'attente de son rétablissement, sa « potiche » de femme décide, à la surprise générale, de prendre la direction de l'entreprise. Et, à la surprise générale, elle s'en tire plutôt bien.

Alexandre Guérin habite la région lyonnaise. Cadre bancaire épanoui d'une quarantaine d'années, époux d'une femme aimante et père de cinq enfants, c'est un catholique pratiquant, tout comme sa famille. Un jour, après une conversation avec un camarade jadis scout comme lui, il se rappelle les abus sexuels dont, enfant, il fut victime de la part d'un prêtre pédophile, le père Bernard Preynat. Les faits sont prescrits. Mais, assailli de souvenirs douloureux, Alexandre décide d'entreprendre une enquête. Il entre en contact avec la psychologue de l'archevêché, Régine Maire. Par son entremise, il obtient un rendez-vous avec le cardinal Philippe Barbarin, archevêque de Lyon. Il découvre alors que malgré l'alerte de plusieurs parents, l'Église a étouffé l'affaire. Régine Maire organise une brève confrontation entre Alexandre et le père Preynat, qui se conclut par une prière commune quasi surréaliste. Malgré les nombreux courriers électroniques d'Alexandre, les autorités ecclésiastiques tergiversent et se défaussent. Pire, lors d'une messe, Alexandre constate que le père Preynat, maintenu en fonctions, se trouve toujours au contact d'enfants.
