Charlotte Rampling gives a heart-wrenching portrayal of a woman named Marie who's husband disappears, presumed drowned whilst on their holiday to the seaside.
The story follows her as she becomes more and more convinced that he is in fact still alive and will therefore not move on with her life despite the gentle suggestions of her friends that it is time to let go. Marie refuses, speaking of her husband still as though in the present and going home in the evening and calling his name, not seeming to remember thathe is no longer there.
The beauty of this film is how haunting it is *SPOILERS* as Marie never let's herself fully let go and believe that he is one. Even after an affair with a nice man she meets later on after the disappearance she still doesn't let her husband or his memory go.
This movie is elegently directed and very poignant about learning to move on with your life after you lose a loved one, and Charlotte Rampling is as always, superb.
