Indochine
France (1992): Drama/Romance/War
Indochina during the 30's. One of the largest rubber-tree plantations is owned by the French colonist Eliane (Catherine Deneuve), a proud but imprudent woman. She lives with her father and her native adoptive daughter Camille. At an auction Eliane gets to know the young officer Jean-Baptiste (Vincent Perez); after a short affair she refuses to see him again. But in the meantime Camille falls deeply in love with the young man, so Eliane takes the necessary steps to cause a transposition of Jean-Baptiste onto a far island. Though Camille gets married to another man, she goes on a long journey throughout the country in order to find the man she loves. (Amazon.com)
