Muriel

Slovenski opis filma:

Komorna drama o vdovi in njenem sinu, ki živita v majhni francoski vasi. Trgovka s starinami Hélène povabi na obisk moškega, ki ga je ljubila pred 22 leti. Sina preganja smrt Muriel, ki jo je morda povzročil, ko je služil kot vojak v Alžiriji. Trgovka s starinami Hélène Aughain (Delphine Seyrig) živi v majhni francoski vasici Boulogne skupaj s pastorkom Bernardom (Jean-Baptiste Thierrée), veteranom alžirske vojne. Nekega dne prispe Hélènin nekdanji ljubimec Alphonse (Jean-Pierre Kérien), ki s seboj pripelje svojo novo ljubico Francoise (Nita Klein), pa tudi spomine na vojno in ljubezensko romanco. Vse to pomeni preveliko napetost pod eno samo streho; ljubosumje, poželenje in mračne skrivnosti kmalu privedejo do tragedije.

Originalni opis filma:

In the seacoast town of Boulogne, Hélène sells antique furniture, living with her step-son, Bernard, who's back from military duty in Algiers. An old lover of Hélène's comes to visit - Alphonse - with his niece Françoise; he too is back from Algiers, where he ran a café. Bernard speaks of his fiancée, Muriel, whom Hélène has not met. The narrative, like memory and intention, is jumpy, the past obscured by guilt, misperceptions, and missed possibilities. Appearances deceive, things change. As Hélène and Alphonse try to sort out a renewal, everyone seems off-kilter just enough to hint that all cannot end well. Can anyone know another?
