Cartagena

Directed by Alain Monne

With Sophie Marceau, Christopher Lambert, Margarita Rosa de Francisco, Rodolfo De Souza and Linnett Hernandez Valdes

Muriel is beautiful, free-spirited and bed-ridden since a horrific accident. Leo is a drunk middle-aged ex-boxer. Desperate for work and unqualified, he interviews for Muriel, who hires him to cook and care for her against her better judgment. Initially out of his depth, Leo slowly wins Muriel's trust. As Muriel teaches him to read, he forces her to confront the joys beyond her window.
