La Femme défendue


Photo Courtesy of the Cannes Film Festival

François is 39. Muriel is 22. He's married, with a child, and lives comfortably.

She is single and unattached. They meet by chance...

He wants her... She resists... Gives in... Latches on to him... There's a name for it : adultery.

Adultery in all its fleeting joys, rare moments, creeping jealousy, open conflicts, stolen pleasures, tears held back, tears shed.
