Le Bonheur

Agnès Varda19651h 20mRomance, Drama, Classic

Why we chose it

Warm colours, Mozart and pastoral calm fill the sunniest film about infidelity ever made, which Agnès Varda shot just before May 1968. Her hero is a man who falls for a second woman and begins to believe he can add a new happiness to his life without losing the first.

Synopsis

A young carpenter has a comfortable, peaceful life, a lovely wife and two wonderful children. He’s happily married, but on a work trip he meets another woman and they begin an affair. His wife can tell something has put him in an unusually good mood, and since he can’t bring himself to lie to her, he tells her the truth. Nothing has changed between them, he promises.
