Synopsis

Diana is only a young girl when Paul, a French seaman and artist who finds himself trapped in England, admires her from afar as she takes a daily swim. Fascinated by each other they become friends, of a sort. She grows up and then becomes engaged to Andrew. However, is she sure she loves him, or is it just a solution to finding the independence she craves, away from a family life that is comfortable, but in which she never really finds her true self? Then, a chance meeting with Paul has the potential to turn her life upside down. This is a story of conflict, between Diana’s need for security and her longing for happiness and the love she yearns for.
