Film Synopsis
Raphaël and Margot are a couple who are passionately in love with one
another. He is a successful graphic design artist, she is a dancer
at the height of career. Just when they could not be happier Margot
discovers that she has an incurable cancer. It is a blow that neither
can cope with and the awfulness of their situation soon begins to place an
intolerable strain on their relationship. Violent mood swings affect
them both, and as Margot's health begins to show signs of visible decline
she forbids her lover from touching her. With her strength failing
her, Margot continues dancing, increasingly to the point of exhaustion.
As he watches his partner's mental and physical disintegration Raphaël
realises that he cannot face the prospect of losing her...
