About this movie

The film that propelled Rohmer to international acclaim remains one of the finest achievements of his career. The fourth in the Moral Tales series, it tells the story of a chaste and conservative thirty-something (Jean-Louis Trintignant, Three Colours Red) who sees a woman that he believes will be his perfect match whilst attending church. But when he unwittingly spends the night at the apartment of the worldly and spirited Maud (Francoise Fabian), the moral certainties of his life are suddenly thrown into question.
