From acclaimed director Patrice Leconte ('Girl on the Bridge', 'The Hairdresser’s Husband'), 'Yvonne’s Perfume' is a mysterious and romantic drama of desire. In the early 1950s, on the shores of a lake wedged between France and Switzerland, a trio of holiday travelers meet, clash, and fall in and out of friendship and love. Adapted from the novel Ville Triste by Nobel Prize-winner Patrick Modiano, it follows Victor (Hippolyte Girardot, 'The French Dispatch') a deserter escaping his past who lusts after the beautiful actress Yvonne (Sandra Majani). Their push-pull flirtation attracts the attention of gay bon vivant Dr. Meinthe (Jean-Pierre Marielle, 'The Da Vinci Code'), who can’t help but insert himself into their tryst. But their idyllic holiday can’t last forever.
