French filmmaker Andre Techine delves into the mysteries and paradoxes of human behavior with revealing character studies of two families touched by a seemingly inexplicable event. Jeanne (Emilie Dequenne) is an enigmatic, restless 20-something woman unaccustomed to reflection or curiosity. To help Jeanne find a job, her widowed mother (Catherine Deneuve) arranges a meeting between Jeanne and an old friend, a powerful lawyer (Michel Blanc), an event which prompts Jeanne to concoct a sinister and manipulative manifestation of public suffering.
