In rural Normandy during the second half of the nineteenth century, young Céleste walks across the fields with her mother, Rose, to milk the cows. Their familiar journey gradually becomes a tense and difficult conversation when the girl is compelled to speak about a secret involving the coachman, Paul. The work examines strict village morals, parental authority, personal responsibility, and the fear of judgment from the surrounding community.
