Marius is the keeper of an abandoned cement works staying high above the quarter of l'Estaque in Marseilles. Jeannette is bringing up her two children alone with her poor checkout operator ...
Likable, but a bit in-your-face romance in a proletarian milieu with some very good set pieces; the wonderful cast makes it worth the watch.
Halliwell*: "A soft-centred romance about a couple experiencing hard times; the craft of its director and the performances of the cast compensate for its old-fashioned tone."
