Drama

To hide her pregnancy, 17-year-old Claire (Lola Naymark) leaves her family and her supermarket job to work under seamstress Madame Mélikian (Ariane Ascaride). The practical arrangement -- Claire's assistance in exchange for an isolated place to make a living until her baby is adopted -- becomes something deeper: Creative Claire learns from experienced Mélikian, while the older woman's grief over losing her son is slowly assuaged by helping the young woman bring a child into the world.
