Unable to meet a mother's demands, she nevertheless demonstrates exemplary discipline in maintaining a perfect body. Taking to the mountains to run, she escapes her mother's control. Using a mechanism to stay slim, Karine serves her sentence on the sly, while on the other side of the mountain, her mother redoubles her efforts by laundering the dirty sleeve of a sweater one again soiled by Karine. How will Chantal react to her daughter's illness, which inevitably reminds her of that same youthful wound that remains, to this day, an unresolved turmoil? Written by
