MOVIE SYNOPSIS
Girl Cut in Two (La Fille coupee en deux)
Gabrielle Deneige is an independent, ambitious TV weather girl torn between her love of a distinguished author several decades her senior and the attentions of a headstrong, potentially unstable young suitor. An unspoken past between the two men heightens tensions, and though she's initially certain of her love for one of them, the see-saw demands and whims of both men keep confusing--and darkening--matters. Before long she's encountering emotional and societal forces well beyond her control, inexorably leading to a shocking clash of violence and passion.
