Set in the shrine of French dance, the Garnier Opera house, L'Opera follows three characters whose dreams clash with reality, whose ambitions collide with expectations, and whose purity faces corruption.
Sébastien, the new Director of Dance at the Paris Opera, threatens to fire Zoe, which shocks her to her core.
Zoe receives some advice from lawyer Maître Delva; Sébastien must convince a frustrated dancer to stay at the Opera, while managing the whims of a choreographer.
After the official announcement of her dismissal, a strike call was launched in support of Zoe. Flora supports the movement, but when called to replace striking dancers, she cannot refuse this opportunity to go on stage.
When several dancers are stricken with food poisoning, Sébastien takes advantage of the situation and offers Zoe the lead role in Swan Lake, being certain that she will be forced to refuse. However, Zoe takes up the challenge.
Jonas prepares to go on stage for the last time to say goodbye; the company receives a visit from the Bolshoi.
As the days tick down until Zoe will be forced to leave the Opera, she holds out hope that her departure is temporary.
Zoe leaves the Opera and awaits the outcome of her legal battle; Sébastien begins to feel the pressure as the preparation for the ballet escapes him.
Flora is searched by the police and is found to be carrying drugs; Zoe makes an unexpected sacrifice.
