Synopsis

Therese lives alone in her house in the Camargue. She raises horses and bulls. 

 

Pierre, a young man in his thirties, introduces himself to her; he is looking for an internship with the horses. Who recommended this stable to him? A guy named Pablo. 

 

Thérèse shuddered when she heard this name: her son, whom she never saw again because his spouse had kidnapped him after his birth, bore this name. Pierre confirms: his roommate introduced himself as his son. 

 

Thérèse may be very ill, but she accepts this intern, hoping to learn more about her son.
