Gilles and Marion, a young French couple, separate. Told in reverse, the story traces five key moments of their relationship: their divorce, a strained dinner with friends, the birth of their child, their wedding, and their first meeting.

By distilling the essential fragments of a relationship and putting them side by side, François Ozon delivers a chronicle presenting the destructive and cruel effects that time can have on our most noble feelings. A heartfelt observation of a couple’s odyssey, simultaneously unique and universal.
