Returning to Saint-Martial for his late boss's funeral, Jérémie's stay with widow Martine becomes entangled in a disappearance, a threatening neighbour and an abbot's shady intentions.
The latest feature from the director of ‘Stranger by the Lake’ stars Félix Kysyl as a man who returns to his French village and stirs up considerable trouble. Jérémie (Félix Kysyl) plans to attend the funeral of his former boss, the village baker. He decides to stay for a few days with Martine (Catherine Frot), the man's widow. A mysterious disappearance, a threatening neighbour and a priest with strange intentions make Jérémie's short stay in the village take an unexpected turn. ‘Naturalistic performances reminiscent of Robert Bresson with the macabre humour and underlying suspense of Hitchcock’ - The Hollywood Reporter.
