Summary
An imaginative, reflective animated film from France about an old woman and her adventures in a small abandoned seaside resort town when the weather takes a turn for the worse. Fragile and coquettish, not nearly as well-prepared as a would-be Robinson Crusoe, Louise isn't likely to make it through the winter. Yet, Louise takes her abandonment as a challenge. She's going to survive, confronting the elements as well as her memories, which have found the perfect occasion to join in the adventure.
