In this film, Philippe Durand wanted to express all that his experience of the Algerian war left in him, as physical and moral bruises. It is a love film, it shows the daily life in France of the fiancée that the young called left and who fights against absence. He drew a close correspondence between this girl, who was harmed by the accidents of daily life, and that boy was soiled by what was forced to do for the superior needs of pacification.

A bourgeois couple, modern yet conventional. One night by accident, a young prostitute barges into their lives. Hounded down, beaten up, threatened, she will continue to struggle, with the help of a well off lady, first for her survival-her resurrection-then for her dignity and freedom. Stormy encounters for everyone involved.

A star is born in a time of both celebration and instability in this historical drama with music from director Christophe Barratier. In the spring of 1936, Paris is in a state of uncertainty; while the rise of the Third Reich in Germany worries many, a leftist union-oriented candidate, Léon Blum, has been voted into power, and organized labor is feeling its new power by standing up to management.
