It’s love at first sight when bridesmaid Senta meets
handsome young Philippe at the wedding of his younger sister. Though
their passion for each other is as obvious as it is unquestionable,
Philippe soon discovers that Senta’s life is shrouded in mystery and
her stories surrounding her past anything but believable. When one day
she asks Philippe for proof of his love, Philippe must come to terms
with who his lover might really be. Is this just another of Senta’s
fantastic tales and how far is Philippe willing to go, even as his love
for her seems to know no limits?

"When the master of French thrillers Claude Chabrol meets the
mistress of English suspense fiction Ruth Rendell, the result is a
potent

until film's final revelation”
