Intriguing French Drama from the pen of Ruth Rendell

Warning: Spoilers
Claire has a best friend in Laura, they have been close since they met as children and have grown and lived their lives together. We start the film with Laura's funeral – she leaves behind a loving husband and a baby daughter. Claire has promised to care for her friend's family and after much grieving she goes round to the house to comfort David. *Mild plot spoiler* Once there she makes a discovery about David that will change all of their lives. Now to say any more would be a plot spoiler but if you notice that Romain Duris is credited with both a male and female part in this film it is a good indicator of where this is going.

Written by Ruth Rendell this is actually a very warm and caring film that has the air of realism throughout. It is the sort of film that pulls you in and keeps you hooked. In French with good to average sub titles regarding translation, you will also get some good make up and fashion tips. I really enjoyed this film and so find it easy to recommend.
