Off-beat drama. Thomas (played by Michel Bouquet, Jo De Backer and Thomas Godet over the different stages of his life) and his neighbour Alfred (Peter Bohlke, Didier Ferney and Hugo Harold Harrison) were born in the same hospital at the same time, although Thomas is convinced that a nursery fire led to them being mixed up as babies. As an old man, resentful of Alfred\'s success and happiness, Thomas reflects back on their intertwined lives as his thoughts turn steadily towards vengeance.
