加布里埃尔

简（帕斯卡·格里高利 Pascal Greggory 饰）非常庆幸自己能够娶到加布里埃尔（伊莎贝尔·于佩尔 Isabelle Huppert 饰）作为自己的妻子，简举手投足之间所展现出来的气质，即便在两人已经结婚许久许久之后依然深深的吸引着简的注意。 　　一天，当简像往常一样回到家中时，发现加布里埃尔不见了。在桌子上，简看到了加布里埃尔留给他的一封信，让简感到震惊的是，在信里，加布里埃尔坦承自己在和他结婚短短半年之后就已经不再爱他了，而之后的婚姻生活都只是苟延残喘而已。加布里埃尔和简的编辑私奔了。尽管之后，加布里埃尔还是回到了简的身边，但是一切都不一样了。Paris shortly before World War I. Wealthy and self-satisfied, Jean Hervey is returning home from work, describing life with his wife of 10 years, Gabrielle; he values her as impassive and stolid. However, that day she's gone, leaving a letter that she's joining a man she loves. Jean is devastated, but within minutes she's returned, telling him that her resolve has failed. Over the next two days, he questions, demands, begs, and parries with her: why did she leave, why did she return, does she love him, did she ever love him, who is her lover, is she passionate with her lover? She's calm as alabaster, reserved. Is she in danger? When she makes an offer, how will he respond?
