Details: In the Landes, marriages are arranged to bring land together and unite families. Thérèse Larroque becomes Madame Desqueyroux; but this young woman with avant-garde ideas does not respect the conventions rooted in the region. To free herself from the destiny imposed on her, she will try everything to live her life to the full. In the late Claude Miller's exquisite adaptation of this classic novel, Audrey Tautou (Amélie) stars as Thérèse, a provincial housewife in 1920s France, suffocating in her arranged marriage to a boorish landowner. When her best friend falls madly in love, Thérèse sees first-hand the awesome power of passionate love and what is missing in her own life. Yearning to break free from the fate imposed upon her, she resorts to extreme measures in a desperate bid for freedom.
