Spoilers ahead
Julien Müller, Jerzy Radziwiłowicz, is a middle-aged clockmaker who lives alone with his cat in a spacious house on the outskirts of Paris. He spends his days keeping time and, beneath a quiet exterior, nurturing a tense game of leverage: he is blackmailing Madame X, Anne Brochet, who imports fake antique Chinese silks and may have murdered her sister. By chance, he encounters Marie, Emmanuelle Béart — a radiant young woman he tangled with a year earlier — and the sight of her rekindles a fierce, undeniable attraction. Their reunion quickly blossoms into a passionate relationship, and Marie agrees to move in, even as her presence remains unsettlingly elusive.
