La Belle Saison (Summertime)
There was little chance, in the year 1971, that Carole, a Parisian Spanish teacher and feminist militant, would ever meet Delphine, the daughter of a couple of Limousin farmers. Not only did they come across each other, but they fell passionately in love as well. Unfortunately, Delphine’s father fell victim to a stroke, and the young woman had no other choice but to go back home to help her mother run the family farm. Carole, who was so smitten by Delphine, couldn’t stand the estrangement and decided to join her lover at the farm. But can feminism and lesbianism be easily transferred to the countryside and its standards of the time…?
