Alain Tanner

A Flame in My Heart (Flamme dans mon coeur, une)

Edition 1987
106' - 1987 - Drama - Dialogue: French
Director: Alain Tanner With: Myriam Mézières, Benoît Régent, Azize Kabouche
The painful ending of a love story binding an over-30-year-old woman and a North African, and the beginning and end of a relationship she also has with an "established" journalist she meets in the subway. The stories illustrate the absolute claim of a woman who can only understand love in terms of life and death, an attitude that generally makes love appear dramatic, but at least burning and flickering, like the flame that glows in her heart.
