In 1960s Paris, Jacqueline is having a hard time trying to bring up her son Laurent single-handedly. Laurent suffers from Down's syndrome but his mother is determined that he shall live as normal a life as possible - this has become her sole purpose in life. Fifty years on, Antoine has made a success of his career as a disk jockey in Montreal, Canada. After his divorce, he has no shortage of amorous admirers but he now devotes himself to just one woman, believing her to be his ideal soul mate. But then, out of the blue, someone he once loved in his innocent youth returns to him. Some love stories are just impossible to get over...© James Travers
