Marine and Yann are happily settled in their house in the
country. Marine is about to go into labour when a rainstorm
breaks and the house is flooded, along with the surrounding
countryside, in the torrential downpour. They are stranded in
their house with several uninvited guests - Jacques, Francis, Huguette,
etc. - in desperate need of shelter. With Marine about to give
birth an any moment, Yann realises he must get her to the nearest
hospital as quickly as he can. But how...?
