Henri, a 40 year old with a bad case of burn out, works as a canine security guard in a suburban train station. One day his boss tells him he'll have to get rid of Oedipus, his narcoleptic old Rottweiler and only friend. Unable to go through with it, Henri seeks comfort in a beer at the Bistro De la Gare, the station bar. The waitress, Chantal, has a crush on Henri, but he's too blind to see it.
