Along Came Love

Set against the backdrop of post-war France, Katell Quillévéré’s Along Came Love is a tender and complex portrait of two souls brought together by chance.

In 1947, on the windswept beaches of Normandy, Madeleine (Anaïs Demoustier) —a young waitress and mother—meets François (Vincent Lacoste), a cultivated and affluent student from a very different world. What begins as a spontaneous spark quickly deepens into something more profound. But while Madeleine is determined to start afresh and bury the past, François carries with him secrets and traumas that slowly begin to surface.

Directed with emotional nuance and visual elegance, Along Came Love is a deeply human story about reinvention, resilience, and the invisible scars that history leaves behind.

“A thorny, moving and intimately epic love story.”
