Charlotte Rampling plays Marie, a teacher of literature who travels with her husband in their home at Jean Lande for a holiday. During their stay, however, the husband disappears swallowed up by the ocean. The desperate wife gives way to the research but do not give results. So we can find Marie in Paris apparently quiet, who carries on his life between work, gym and dinner with friends. But the woman has a sad problem, unable to accept the disappearance of her husband (who is most likely dead) and lives his life as if the person you have always loved was always at his side. Even at the end, faced with irrefutable evidence of the death of her husband, Marie seems to accept their loss. Until his hand sinks in the sand of the beach, and a weeping discharge puts it in front of her pain: the pain of loss.
Ozon seems that in this beautiful film, as a pretext to take the death and forced separation to speak of strong and indissoluble ties. Two people merge into one, are one body. No coincidence that Marie wants to see the remains of the body of Jean, to kill the final part of himself who has since lost.
