- Synopsis
- As he toils on the screenplay for his next film, a forty-something filmmaker, Bertrand, begins to undergo a deep inner transformation. The idea of death haunts him and the materialistic world begins to feel alien to him. He meets a young man, Charles, who invites him to join his group of friends who live in a run-down building in the countryside. There, Bertrand discovers a community of happy souls led by an enchanting woman named Uma. It is a whole new world, where individuals live as they choose, at ease and at peace with one another, taking advantage of the pleasures that nature offers them, without the clutter, anxiety and artificiality of the world Bertrand seeks to take refuge from. But is there a darker side to this paradise?
