De France plays Marion, a young estate agent in a new town, with a young son she doesn't get to spend much time with.

Depardieu is the aging, almost over-the-hill Alain Moreau, a singer used to women swooning all over him, taken aback by Marion’s initial resistance!

This is a film about a deep emotional connection between two very different kinds of people.

With a charming ambience and beautiful music, The Singer is a French cinematic delight about a provincial world of dancehalls and courtships.
