English Summary:
Under the Sand (French: Sous le sable, pronounced [su lə sɑbl]) is a 2000 French drama film directed and written by François Ozon. The film was nominated for three César Awards and was critically well received. It stars Charlotte Rampling and Bruno Cremer.
Marie, happily married to Jean for 25 years, is a lecturer in English literature at a Paris university. During their summer vacation in the southwest of France, Jean goes to swim in the sea while his wife is sunbathing and never returns, vanishing without trace. No body is found and several questions arise. Has he left her, committed suicide, drowned? With no body to mourn, she pretends that he is still alive and present in their apartment. Her life becomes characterized by denial, cloaked in enigmatic complexity and emotional disorientation. When the badly decomposed body is found in the sea and identified from dental records, she refuses to admit it is Jean. She imagines she will see him alive as he was on the beach.
French Summary:
Sous le sable est un film français réalisé par François Ozon, sorti en 2000.
Marie, mariée à Jean depuis 25 ans et heureuse en ménage, enseigne la littérature anglaise dans une université de Paris. Pendant les vacances d'été du couple près de Lit-et-Mixe dans les Landes, Jean prend un bain de mer tandis que sa femme reste sur la plage, absorbée par la lecture d'un bouquin. Lorsqu'elle cherche Jean du regard, elle ne le voit plus. Aucun témoin ne l'a vu entrer dans l'eau et nager. Son corps n'étant pas retrouvé, plusieurs questions se posent : a-t-il disparu volontairement, s'est-il suicidé, s'est-il noyé ? Sans corps pour pleurer, elle feint de croire qu'il est toujours vivant et présent dans leur appartement parisien. Elle organise alors sa vie autour du déni, masqué par sa complexité énigmatique et sa désorientation émotionnelle.
