Mathieu est un jeune homme de la banlieue parisienne qui traîne avec sa bande de copains et se livre à quelques cambriolages. Enfant, il avait rencontré Monsieur Jacques, un vieux professeur de piano, qui avait réussi à le transformer en véritable virtuose. Après le décès de Monsieur Jacques, Mathieu hérite de son piano, mais sa mère, faute de moyens financiers, est incapable de lui offrir des cours de piano. Mathieu sombre dans une mélancolie teintée de rage de ne pouvoir mener à bien un projet musical à la hauteur de son talent. Au hasard d'un déplacement, alors que Mathieu joue dans la gare du Nord sur un piano mis à disposition du public, il se fait remarquer par Pierre Geithner, personnage important du conservatoire de Paris. Pierre assiste à une course poursuite entre Mathieu et la police et comprend qu'il a commis des actes répréhensibles. Il le retrouve un jour à nouveau assis au piano de la gare et essaie de le convaincre de venir au conservatoire, proposition aussitôt rejetée par Mathieu. Il se fait un jour pincer par la police en flagrant délit de cambriolage. Le jour de son passage au tribunal, il fait tout de même appel à Pierre qui lui trouve une issue honorable : celui-ci lui évite la prison en le forçant à venir chaque jour au conservatoire pendant six mois pour y faire des travaux d'intérêt général. Mais alors que Mathieu pense exécuter un simple travail manuel, Pierre le force à dévoiler ses talents au piano et à se présenter à un concours international de très haut niveau. Mathieu fait également connaissance avec Anna, une élève violoncelliste du conservatoire qui va lui redonner un peu de goût à la vie.

Se déroulant entre le 9 mai 1940 (la veille de l’offensive allemande) et début juin 1940, le film se focalise sur le personnage de Churchill et son entourage, en partie par l'œil de sa nouvelle secrétaire privée , chargée de taper télégrammes et courriers. D'abord pressenti comme prochain Premier ministre, Churchill se heurte à une opposition favorable à des pourparlers de paix (en premier Lord Halifax et Chamberlain). Puis on le suit à la tête du gouvernement, dans les affres de la douleur des choix difficiles. Notamment lorsque la guerre éclair refoule les 300 000 hommes de l'armée britannique à Dunkerque, le dos à la mer. Churchill ordonne le sacrifice d'une unité chargée d'une diversion (30e brigade motorisée commandée par le brigadier Nicholson à Calais) et la mobilisation des embarcations civiles pour secourir les armées française et anglaise encerclées à Dunkerque : c'est l'« opération Dynamo » qui débute le 26 mai.

American writer Tom Ricks (Hawke) arrives in Paris to be closer to his young daughter who lives with his ex-wife. We learn that the divorce was caused by Tom's mental illness, from which he has apparently recovered. Completely broke, he accepts a job as a night guard for a local crime boss who owns a run down hostel. Stationed in a basement office, his only task is to push a button when a bell rings. The tranquility of the night, he hopes, will help him focus on his new novel. His days become more exciting when he starts a romance with Margit (Thomas), a mysterious and elegant widow who sets strange rules to their meetings: she will only see him at her apartment in the fifth arrondissement, at 5pm sharp, twice a week and he should ask no questions about her work or her past life. He also gets closer to Ania (Kulig), the Polish barmaid of the hostel where he lives, who has literary interests.
