A writer spends a summer in her bayside house in Saint-Tropez, south of France. Now in her fifties, she gardens, takes care of her animals and vines, while musing on her past existence, her late mother, her old loves. Around her nature abounds. But towards her, a handsome young man and a restless young woman are gravitating, carrying with them the uncertainties of desire and romance. Adapted from Colette's quasi-autobiographical novel of the same name.
