CGiii Comment

Julie, a Franco-Algerian girl, pays for her studies by working for a wealthy couple as a carer for their son, a bright, somewhat spoiled child with health problems. Coexistence, highly valued by Julie, whose appreciation for the wife goes beyond simple admiration, is threatened when Manuel, the husband, confesses Julie that he is in love with her and asks her to leave the house: he wants to protect his marriage and his feelings for her put it in danger. But Julie doesn't want to leave and is willing to go further than Manuel expects to continue living there.


Julie, una chica franco-argelina, se paga los estudios trabajando para una pareja acomodada como cuidadora de su hijo, un niño despierto, algo consentido y con problemas de salud. La convivencia, muy valorada por Julie, cuyo aprecio por la esposa va más allá de la simple admiración, se ve amenazada cuando el marido, Manuel, le confiesa que está enamorado de ella y le pide que abandone la casa: quiere proteger su matrimonio y sus sentimientos por ella lo ponen en peligro. Pero Julie no quiere irse y está dispuesta a llegar más lejos de lo que Manuel espera para seguir viviendo allí...
