The Lovers on the Bridge
“Romance... In a most unlikely place.”
DramaRomance
Set against Paris' oldest bridge, the Pont Neuf, while it was closed for repairs, this film is a love story between two young vagrants: Alex, a would be circus performer addicted to alcohol and sedatives and Michele, a painter driven to a life on the streets because of a failed relationship and an affliction which is slowly turning her blind.
VIBE
A hauntingly beautiful, tragic romance set against the backdrop of Paris. It's a raw, poetic exploration of love found in the ruins of life, with a melancholic beauty that lingers long after the credits roll.
