Unloved, Raphaël manipulates his friends until a dramatic event occurs…

In the small village of Saint-Laure where everybody knows each other, Raphaël does his best to be hated. Mean, arrogant, sometimes cruel: that is the image he projects and the reputation he has built for himself. Louis and Lili, his two best friends, are never able to reason with him and his mischief multiplies, pushing the inhabitants to their limits. However, one day, the joke turns into a drama. How far will Raphaël go to manipulate his friends? Why does he seems to go out of his way to get his parents’ attention?
