La Veuve de Saint-Pierre

Directed by Patrice Leconte

In their first film together Auteuil and Binoche play a couple deeply in love – a Captain of the guard assigned to a distant island outpost off the snowy edge of Canada, and his devoted wife. Madame La is an outspoken woman with a fierce sense of justice and this passionate nature leads her to take up the cause of a man condemned to death (acclaimed director Kusturica). But her good intentions have harsh consequences
