In La belle saison (2015), a young woman named Delphine leaves her conservative family in the French countryside and moves to Paris in the 1970s. Deviating from societal expectations, she embraces the vibrant atmosphere of the city and becomes enthralled with the feminist movement sweeping across France during that time. As Delphine immerses herself in this new world, she meets and falls in love with Carole, a confident and charismatic activist.
Delphine and Carole's relationship blossoms into a passionate and liberating love affair. Together, they navigate the complexities of their love amidst the backdrop of a changing society and political unrest.
