Synopsis:

December 1917. Julien, a young man from Luxembourg who lives in Paris, is on his way to Bray at the invitation of his friend Jacques Neuil. At La Fougeraie, a small house in a neglected park, the door is opened by a beautiful young woman with thick black hair. Jacques has not arrived yet... The waiting starts. Julien loses himself in memories of their friendship. When night falls, the young woman reappears. Then he starts to wonder...Who is this woman? How come Jacques has still not arrived? He begins to feel uneasy, even vaguely afraid. In the leading roles: Mathieu Carrière, Roger Van Hool, Anna Karina, Bulle Ogier.

In 1917, the First World War is raging. Julien is from Luxemburg, so instead of having to go to war he studies piano in Paris. One day his friend Jacques, also a musician and now a fighter pilot on the front, invites him to spend a few days in his family's empty house in Bray. The housekeeper, a beautiful but mute woman lets Julien in, but his friend is late and he is obliged to wait. In the meantime, he starts reminiscing of the pre-war days spent with his friend and Jacques' girlfriend Odile.
