Autrui -- Film Description:
"Lucie leads a quiet life. An introverted and fragile young woman without plans or ambitions, she is overwhelmed by the frenzied lives she sees around her. Éloi, a homeless man she meets, is on the verge of freezing to death in an alley. She decides to bring him to her home so that he can rest and recover for a day or two but he ends up staying several months. Living together proves to be difficult, and Éloi's reactions are unpredictable but, gradually, her stubborn kindness restores his humanity. In return, he helps Lucie break free from her fantasy world, forcing her to engage with life and leading her towards love."
