A Tale of Winter

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.

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.
