June 1944, France is still under German occupation. The writer Robert Antelme, a major figure in the Resistance, is arrested and deported. His young wife Marguerite, a writer and resistant, is torn by the anxiety of not having news of him and his secret affair with her comrade Dyonis. She meets a French agent of the Gestapo, Rabier, and, ready to do anything to find her husband, puts herself to the test of an ambiguous relationship with this troubled man, the only one who can help him. The end of the war and the return of the camps announce to Marguerite the beginning of an unbearable wait, a slow and silent agony in the midst of the chaos of the Liberation of Paris.
