A single mother (Charlotte Very) has a fling with a chef she meets
while on vacation. Five years later, the two have completely lost touch while she raises
his child. However, she continues to carry an unwavering torch for him despite the fact that she has
two eligible men vying for her affection. A
Tale of Winter is the talky, observant, and well realized second entry in
Eric Rohmer’s Four Seasons series, although its impulsive main character is reasonably
off-putting.
