Plots(1)
Stéphane, a seasoned and disillusioned magistrate, whose young and passionate colleague Claire (Marie Gillain) involves him in a battle to save a woman from the trappings of easy money and huge interest rates.In the background is Claire's illness. She is suffering from cancer and only has a few weeks left to live, giving her the urgency to live emotions to the full and the desire to leave something significant behind. A special complicity is born between her and Stéphane – a hard man with a heart of gold – one that is noble, rebel, perhaps love, but impossible, and therefore not expressed. Lioret and Lindon have a rapport that works: "I like Vincent's charisma, he is instinctive and friendly. We will work together again", the director said of the one who could officially become his preferred actor.
