Description

On a cold October night in 1918, Toussaint Caillet returns to his family in their meagre apartment in the rundown Belleville district of Paris. His wife, Jeanne, and their young daughter Leonie have been awaiting his return; but the man who arrives at their door is unrecognisable from the one who left four years earlier. Shrouded in silence, his unfamiliar presence in their home becomes almost unbearable. After years spent focusing on survival, with the promise of peace now in sight, the family must attempt to stitch a new life from the tatters of what they had before.
