Widowed cellist Jean Debart is strict with his two children in regards to their musical education. Teenager Adele studies the cello but yearns for some rebellious independence while 11-year-old Alexandre is firmly committed to playing the piano and observing his father's wishes. Their stern grandfather Maître Erhardt is an orchestra conductor and their uncle Gerald is a less-ambitious musician who finds work making background sounds. Soon Adele finds herself growing away from her father's harsh rules when she meets fellow musician Thomas.
