Set against Paris' oldest bridge, the Pont Neuf, while it was closed for repairs, this film is a love story between two young vagrants: Alex, a would be circus performer addicted to alcohol and sedatives and Michele, a painter driven to a life on the streets because of a failed relationship and an affliction which is slowly turning her blind.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lyrical, tender love story that unfolds among Paris's forgotten corners, where two damaged souls find solace and beauty in each other despite circumstance conspiring against them. Poetic and ultimately heartbreaking, it argues that love can flourish even in the darkest places.
