Adèle is planning to end her life by jumping off a bridge. Knife spinning master Gabor is also almost on the verge, but he intervenes in time and saves the girl from suicide. He persuades Adèle to become the target of his dangerous knife show. Adèle agrees.
So dizzying and unforgettable love story begins in which the characters, although they have little in common, can experience life only together.
The brilliant performance of two excellent artists, Vanessa Paradis and Daniel Auteuil, makes this black-and-white film by Patrice Leconte a work of art.
