When a famous painter comes to their restaurant and Yannick accidentally throws away the drawing he scribbled on the paper tablecloth, he follows him back to his château to ask for another drawing. He is reluctant to leave Paris, but once his mother tells him that Cézanne loved painting there, Yannick is lured by the prospect of seeing for himself the landscapes that inspired “the greatest painter in the world.” Yannick spends his time in idyllic Provence working in the kitchen, wandering around the beautiful town, and daydreaming of the artist his mother loves so much. So begins an idyllic month for the young city boy: roaming the gentle hills and rolling valleys and daydreaming about his beautiful cousin Amandine helping at his aunt and uncle’s bustling village inn feeling that he has come to the most wonderful place in the world.

When Yannick’s mother becomes ill, he is sent to live with his aunt and uncle at their inn in Provence.
