La Femme et le TGV

Synopsis

Elise Lafontaine (Jane Birkin) has a secret routine : every morning and evening for many years, she has been waving at the express train that passes her house. One day, she finds a letter from the train conductor in her garden and her lonely life is turned upside down. Inspired by true events, this light and touching short film reminds us somewhere of pieces like Le chocolat or Le Fabuleux destin d’Amélie Poulain.
