The film centres on three estranged brothers in their 50s — Victor-Hugo (Guy Jodoin), Alain (François Pérusse) and Léo-Louis (Éric Bernier) Lamothe — who must reunite to undertake a road trip to Niagara Falls after their father Léopold (Marcel Sabourin) unexpectedly dies of a heart attack while trying to participate in an ice bucket challenge.
