Yvonne's Perfume
DramaRomance89 min
During a summer in 1958 on Lake Geneva, a young French man of leisure begins an affair with Yvonne, a glamorous starlet, while the older figure at her side keeps close watch. Hippolyte Girardot is the outsider moving through this wealthy holiday world, and Richard Bohringer looms over Yvonne’s circle as the season fills with half-truths, flirtation, and memory. The story unfolds as a recollection, with idle days by the water, elegant summer clothes, and private tensions shaping what looks at first like a carefree holiday.
