In the wintry rural hinterlands near the eastern border, the body of a young woman is found in the snow. For the investigating magistrate (Alain Delon), the immediate focus is on the farm family from the adjoining property... but the more he tries to press the clan's willful matriarch (Simone Signoret), the more he finds an affinity with her that may compromise his judgment. Thoughtful mystery co-stars Paul Crauchet, Miou-Miou, Catherine Allégret, Bernard Le Coq. 95 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: French; Subtitles: English. In French with English subtitles.
