What if you had a dark secret? How long could you contain it before it tears your
world apart? In 1959 provincial France, Michel is reaching the breaking point. His
family and community know him as a mild-mannered husband, father, and bureaucrat,
but most weekends he escapes to their secluded country home where he can be herself:
Mylène. With longtime friend Flavia, Mylène's female identity grows. A father, a husband,
a mother, a wife—cab Mylène embody all these at once and unify her fractured worlds?
This atmospheric period piece challenges the boundaries and multiplicities of identity
within us all.
