The film is about a woman philosopher, Simone Weil, and his life setted in a little farm during the second world war. The film is too slow, lots of scenes are unexplained because related to fact out of the film that the viewer knows only if he had known the story already. However, during the film the story and the thought of the woman are showed by her behavior and her phrases sometimes sumptuous and sometimes pretentious or amiss. In conclusion, I doesn't feel involved, but probably the reason is the type of film and not the woman's story itself. In my opinion, the film would have been better if it was a documentary.
