Lie with Me
Description
In the summer of 1984, two teenage boys in rural France embark on a passionate and secret affair that will shape their lives forever. Navigating the hidden currents of desire and societal expectations, they steal moments of intimacy amidst the backdrop of sun-drenched vineyards and dusty backroads. This poignant coming-of-age story explores the tender intensity of first love and the enduring power of memory, even as time relentlessly moves forward. Translated with exquisite lyricism, the narrative captures both the eroticism and the heartbreaking beauty of a forbidden romance.
