In 1989, twenty-year-old Marie jumps at an au pair job in Paris, even if it means leaving her Dutch art program. The city, the language, and the complicated French family overshadow the turmoil she fled at school. Years later, during the 2015 Paris attacks, she is shocked to recognize her former teacher, the main reason she fled, pictured in the aftermath in the exact arrondissement where her employers lived. The past floods back, and so do questions she thought she could leave unanswered. Told in alternating voices, this coming-of-age asks what it means to walk the line between remembering and recording, seeing and being seen, coincidence and fate, revenge and reclamation.
