Directed by Marcello Pagliero
Overview
Jean Michaut is a bargeman who lives nearby an old barge cemetery named “Bras-Mort”. He is in love with Monique, the daughter of a wealthy boat owner. The girl returns his affection but runs her head against the wall of her family’s class prejudices. Her “nearest and dearest” prove indeed prepared to do everything to separate the two lovers.
