Mastroianni and Deneuve head a fine cast as the parents of an 18-month old girl who dies tragically. They withdraw themselves from normal social activity, staying in their apartment for weeks with the curtains drawn. Finally Mastroianni attempts to break from the ennui by leaving the apartment with Deneuve. Primarily a study of the characters, it is based on a real life incident which happened to the director and her husband, actor Jean-Louis Trintignant (A MAN AND A WOMAN, THE CONFORMIST).
