Plot Summary:Holed up in a small Normandy town, Louise hides from her ghosts as she looks after grumpy old Theo, the retired lighthouse keeper who shares her passion for ornithology. As she wanders the twisted shores, observing birds and people alike, Louise also keeps track of old Florelle, another broken soul who searches the beaches, seemingly waiting for the crashing waves to return something to her. Observing the locals' reactions to Lambert's return, the heir of a family lost at sea, Louise is intrigued by his past but, at the same time, attracted to him. As their relationship deepens, they start to unravel the web of secrets that have haunted the small village for decades. Together, they struggle to uncover the truth that could set them both free.
改编自Claudie Gallay的小说Les déferlantes，可以说拍得非常忠于原著（背景设定略有差异，原著是在Britanny，电影是在Normandy）选角堪称完美，Sylvie Testud就很适合演敏感忧郁又坚定执着的女性角色，然后Bruno Todeschini也挺贴合原著男主那种小心翼翼慢慢靠近的气质，不过我觉得是不是法国导演的偏好还是什么，基本上Sylvie Testud演爱情片都会配一个情深似海的男主，她所演的角色在感情上都是以自我为中心的赢家模式，就很法式女性主义，总之本片五星好评
