Plot Synopsis

Alain Monne makes his directorial debut with a touching drama starring real life couple Sophie MarceĀ­au and Christopher Lambert.

Marceau plays Muriel, a beautiful, rich French woman who has been confined to bed since a paralyzing accident in Colombia put an end to her engagement to a French diplomat there. She refuses to return to her homeland. Angry and sharp-tongued she has been through at least 40 carers but somehow ex-boxer Leo catches her eye in an interview. Leo has no experience as a carer, but he stands up to Muriels abuse and soon the couple form a close friendship.
