France in the early 1980s: a spirit of optimism is spreading – also in music. In a sleepy small town, the clique around the charismatic Jerôme (Joseph Olivennes) and his introverted brother Philippe (Thimotée Robart) run a pirate radio station in an attic. When Marianne (Marie Colomb) moves back to town from Paris with her little daughter, the brothers die and both fall head over heels in love with her. With his engaging nature, Jerôme quickly wins over Marianne, while Philippe does not dare to show his love. He is drafted into military service and transferred to West Berlin. There, meeting dazzling radio presenter Dany (Brain Powell) changes his life. He can impress as a DJ on military radio and dares to confess his love to Marianne over the radio. But when Philippe drives home, he realizes that everything has changed and has a major conflict of conscience.
