Raoul, the son of Auguste Mercier, juggles the roles of farmer and postman but disappoints his father by choosing a maritime career. During a stop in Marseille, he meets Nghia, who has taken on the name Béatrice, a young Eurasian woman caught in the clutches of a ruthless diamond merchant. She sees Raoul as her savior, and in a defiant act, he marries her, embracing both the sea and his new life. Béatrice arrives in the Mercier family with her young daughter, Jeannette. However, Augusta, Raoul's mother, struggles to accept these two outsiders who are so different from her and come from far away. At eighty-three, Anglade reminds us of Auvergne's rich maritime tradition, weaving a love story that navigates the tensions between sea and countryside, ultimately affirming that agriculture will prevail.
