Maria, who works as a concierge in a high-end apartment in a wealthy area of France, and her husband, José Ribeiro, have been living on the ground floor of the apartment for almost 30 years. They are "good word in the community": Maria is a model concierge, and José is one of the top construction foreman. Over time, the people around them have long been inseparable from the Portuguese couple.
One day, José received a letter that made his dream come true for many years: to return to Portugal to inherit his ancestral property. In order to keep the Ribeiros, their bosses, friends, and relatives come up with different ideas. Can the Ribeiro couple, who always think of others first, have the heart to abandon their neighbors and friends? And, do Maria and José really want to leave their beautiful La cage dorée?
