Summary
A passionate French housewife leaves her family to be with her lover in Indochina. Now she has days of great beauty and nights of sensuous languor, along the banks of the Mekong River. At the same time, she has much time to muse about the struggle between duty and independence, tradition and freedom, longing and regret. All of these thoughts are now condensed into a single day in 1940, as she reflects on her past
