Meanwhile, Mike, a British stuntman, questions his job following an accident with his son. An eccentric elderly Colombian lady named Dolores, the grandmother of a teenage girl, makes a pact with Death to stay alive longer, while a suicidal teenager named Marie-Cerise is kidnapped, forcing her to talk with her captor in a way she could not do with her therapist. Another character, Édouard Emmard, the presenter of a famous true-crime television program, is considering his own death.
