Synopsis
With her idle bourgeois lifestyle getting her down, well-to-do
mother Suzanne goes back to work as a physiotherapist in the south
of France. Her husband agrees to fix up a consulting room in their
backyard but when Suzanne and the man hired to do the building work
meet, their mutual attraction is sudden and violent. Suzanne must
then decide whether to give up everything and live this all
engulfing passion to the fullest.
Kristin Scott Thomas has been nominated for Best Actress in the 2010
Cesar Awards for LEAVING and received the Volta Award at 2010 Dublin
Film Festival.
