Ça commence par la fin (2010)
Directed by Michaël Cohen

Drama / Romance
aka: It Begins with the End

Film Synopsis

One summer, Jean has a chance encounter with Gabrielle, a former lover of his, in Paris.  A great deal of water has flown under the bridge since they last met - several bridges in fact - but it is clear to them both that the old times still mean a lot to them.  Meeting up now, after all this time, it hardly seems that they have been apart, and something of the tenderness of their former romance remains, apparent in the way they look at one another.  Jean is taken aback when Gabrielle tells him that she has met another man and is perfectly happy in her present relationship.  As the evening rolls by, scarcely noticed, the two ex-lovers find themselves falling in love again...
