The nostalgic films of veteran French director Jean Becker often hinge on an unexpected encounter between two seemingly opposed characters.
Here, renowned yet profoundly depressed sixtysomething painter Taillandier (Patrick Chesnais) is stopped by a feisty teenage runaway Marylou (Jeanne Lambert), fleeing from her abusive stepfather.
