Loved ones swept away by the turmoil of history, murderous revenge, fraternal hatreds rooted in a terrible secret... What is this curse that haunts the Morvans? A fascinating saga of Parisian upper middle class, Clara's Legacy delves into the heart of the complex relationships that unite and tear apart a family.
In the heart of this summer of 67, when death claims one of her great-grandchildren, Clara, the eldest of the clan, no longer finds the strength to overcome this final ordeal... With their grandmother gone, will her five heirs manage to remain faithful to her motto - "Family above all"? Nothing is less certain... Tormented, some by the alcoholism of a fragile wife or the rebellion of a teenage son, some by a tortured romantic passion, some again by his thirst for revenge, none of the Morvans are ready to break the veil of silence that weighs on their secret. Is it not this silence, however, that continues to fuel rivalries? When it becomes clear that the grudges of the elders threaten to divide the younger generation as well, Clara's grandchildren will understand that the time has come to burst the boil. But will there still be time?
