Synopsis
Marie-Louise (Anne Giradot) is a woman whose love for her ex-husband will not die. The Lawyer Alexandre (Jean Rochefort) left her, because she attended a few leftwing marches and demonstrations. While her daughter Laura (Claude Jade) falls in love with Marc (Bernard Fresson), Marie-Louise keeps hoping that Alexandre will come back to her. She is so attached to this idea that when her son finally convinces her that he will never return, the realisation has dire consequences. Laura helps her to fight for love, but Laura’s brother Jean-Paul (Bernard LeCoq) calls his mother mad...
