通過紀錄五個特殊的日子，講述了一個平凡的家庭故事。
　　在剛剛結束的有著法國電影最高榮譽——“法國奧斯卡”之稱的法國電影愷撒獎（César Awards），《余生的第一天》勇奪最佳剪輯、最佳男新人演員和最佳女新人演員三項大獎。
　　影片是關于一家五口平凡的生活畫卷，在這部家庭畫卷中，每一個人都是生活的主角，如同紀念日餐桌上的鏡頭，在導軌上不斷的環繞著五個家庭成員，捕捉他們臉上的每一縷笑容。
　　羅貝爾是計程車司機，他和妻子瑪麗-讓娜是一對恩愛和睦的夫妻，一家五口住在郊區一座花園洋房里。他們家三個小孩的性格完全不同，老大阿爾貝有責任感、生命力很強、經常挑戰父親的權威。
　　老二拉法埃爾總是把事情拖到第二天才做。至于女兒弗洛爾正若無其事地經歷她的苦悶期，乖巧的小女兒已經變成了一個叛逆少女。
