Revolves around a woman called Violette Toussaint who is the caretaker for a cemetery in a small town in Burgundy. Violette is at the heart of this small world, populated by the local gravediggers and a young priest as well as the many visitors, who stop by her lodge and confide in her about their lives and lost ones. As she listens to these stories, some tragic, some comic, and reflects on questions of life, death, grief and the simple joys of life, her own painful backstory is revealed through a tragicomic prism.
