Summary
Set on the French Riviera in the summer of 1915, Jean Renoir--son of the Impressionist painter, Pierre-Auguste--returns home to convalesce after being wounded in World War I. At his side is Andrée, a young woman who rejuvenates, enchants, and inspires both father and son. Renoir locates a fascinating moment of change, with one century's way of thinking giving way to the next.
