LEspérance

The village of LEspérance is perched between the mountains and the great river Its inhabitants include young people who dont have much of a future as well as many widows and old men The village continues to be haunted by the tragic death of 13 miners One day a stranger arrives The young man at once charming and mysterious has an immediate effect upon the village The longer he stays in the village the stronger blow the winds of desire The villages prevailing melancholy gives way to love and happiness However not everyone is pleased by the arrival of the stranger who becomes more and more inquisitive about the tragedy of the old mine What are his real motives Is he really who he claims to be As passion and doubt collide the entire village is transformed by events which come crashing down like waves against the high cliffs
