Muriel, a writer nearing 50 whose older lover won’t live with her in Paris, meets a man on a train – Samuel, an Arab. He’s attracted to her and pursues her, dropping in, asserting himself. She’s willing to connect. He’s passionate, then boorish, then jealous and possessive. He seems fixed on “Who’s the strongest?,” while she wants respect and trust. She’s self-possessed as well as sexually charged, willing to laugh, and alternately firm and forgiving. He has little money, no immigration papers, few prospects, and a gambling jag. What does each want, and why does she stick with it? Is this colonial strife, war between the sexes, or a love story?

In this French drama, an urban professional gives up his fast-track life in favor of the quiet of country life. Benoit now lives as a toymaker who sells games at his chic Paris art gallery. The film opens with young Lila as she is being released from prison. Immediately, she sets out to see her sister in Brionne, a tiny Normandy town. As soon as he sees her, the rather quiet Benoit falls in love. Eventually, the emotionally scarred young woman falls in love with him too. Soon they move in together, and Lila gets to meet his ne’er-do-well friends. The couple are very happy for a while, but when Benoit’s gallery goes belly-up, he begins acting strangely, leaving Lila feeling very unsure. Eventually she leaves him. Benoit then struggles to cope with his depression; after many drunken nights, a lost dog helps him find the peace he has been searching for.
