Love like Poison

Tagline

Freedom is a choice

Synopsis

Teenaged Anna comes home from her Catholic boarding school to discover that her father has left. Her mother, devastated, has confined herself in the company of the local priest, while Anna clings to her beloved grandfather. Amidst her grief, Anna also grows close to Pierre, a free-spirited - and atheist - teenager. As Anna prepares for her confirmation, her budding desire for Pierre shakes her faith. She longs to give herself over, body and soul, but doesn't know if God should be the recipient or someone else...

With its languid camera sensuously soaking up the beauty of Brittany's countryside, LOVE LIKE POISON marks the arrival of newcomer Katell Quillevere as a powerful filmmaking force.
