In the quiet town of 1976, a young woman named Eliane arrives with her German-born mother and crippled father. With her striking beauty and provocative nature, she quickly garners attention from the locals. Among them is a firefighter nicknamed Pin-Pon, who finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Eliane as she seeks solace in his arms.Eliane's myopia has always been a source of embarrassment for her, and her reputation as both an intellectual failure and an easily seduced woman only adds to her insecurities. As their emotional connection deepens, Eliane moves in with Pin-Pon, planning their future together. However, her past and true intentions remain shrouded in mystery.One day, Eliane asks about a piano that was mysteriously delivered to Pin-Pon's barn on a cold November night back in 1955. Curiosity piqued, she inquires with Pin-Pon's mother and aunt, uncovering layers of untold stories connected to her own family history. As Eliane delves deeper into the past, she begins to unravel a web of secrets tied to her mother's sorrows, her father's injury, her impulsive marriage, and even the last name on her birth certificate.The film masterfully intertwines themes of love, deception, and self-discovery as it explores how one young woman's quest for the truth unravels a tapestry of hidden emotions and reveals life-altering revelations about the people closest to her heart.
