Henri Colpi
A woman thinks she recognizes her husband, disappeared after being arrested 16 years before and tortured by the Gestapo, before being deported into a camp. She patiently follows the homeless, amnesiac man, hoping to bring back his memories. A scar on his skull suggests he might have been lobotomized. She presses on. Overwhelmed of what is asked of him, the man runs away. Will he ever remember her?
