Conte d'été (1996)




In a resort town in Brittany, a shy mathematics student has come to enjoy a vacation with his girlfriend, but before she arrives, he finds his attention drawn to two other women.

Excellently unostentatious tale of a young man's tribulations concerning attraction, commitment and love.
Halliwell*: "Slight and inconsequential tale of an indecisive protagonist drifting through life, given a certain charm by the performances."
