On a Normandy beach, Madeleine (Anaïs Demoustier) meets François (Vincent Lacoste). The magnetic force pulling them toward each other is as powerful as the secrets each of them carries. While we know what Madeleine is leaving behind as she follows this young man, over time, we discover what François is desperately trying to escape by entwining Madeleine's destiny with his own. Unveiled in advance at the Cannes Film Festival, this melodrama by Katell Quillévéré (Heal the Living) reminds us that it's possible to love beyond the societal norms.
