Film Synopsis
In 1909, the renowned English actor and writer Lewis Lafoly turns his back
on city life and commits himself to a peaceful exile on the Île de
Bourbon (now known as Réunion) in the Indian Ocean. It is here
that the elegant forty-year-old attracts the attention of Rosenn Auroch',
an attractive young teacher. Lafoly's erudition and way with words
make him a magnet that Rosenn cannot resist and within no time these two
ill-matched individuals are caught up in the most passionate of love affairs.
But when Rosenn discovers she is pregnant Lafoly realises that he must take
flight. This is not the sort of complication he had intended to land
himself with when he came to the island. Unfortunately, Rosenn does
not see things from his limited perspective...
