Agathe

Agathe

Bomann, Anne Cathrine

The outskirts of Paris, 1948. A seventy-one-year-old psychiatrist, about to retire, is about to receive the last visits arranged for him by Madame Surrugue, his faithful secretary for more than three decades. The old man has led a methodical, routine and isolated existence, never leaving his childhood home. He has always been so closed in on himself that he doesn't even know anything about her secretary's private life, after years and years of seeing her every weekday. He also avoids any complicity with his neighbors, whom he avoids, and of course with his patients, whose marital problems bore him so much that, lately, while he listens to them, he draws little birds instead of taking notes. Among the latest visits, however, the faithful secretary has added an unscheduled one: that of a German woman named Agathe, with previous psychiatric problems and a life shrouded in mystery. The appointment will destabilize the orderly world of the old psychiatrist. The breath of the unpredictable will creep into his life and change him forever, if he still has time to change...
