An internationally acclaimed comedy-drama. Laid off from work, Tim finds himself doing odd jobs for Mrs. Phipps, a retired professor of mathematics with a disconcerting habit of wandering onto a nearby highway at night. Pushed to the fringes of society, they come to rely on each other. When Tim's wife, Ginette, is offered a job in another city, the hopes and needs of all three come into conflict, with moving and unexpected results.
