A journey through the 20th century, from Corrèze to Limousin Charente, in the footsteps of Mary.
Marie lived a childhood full of uncertainty but bathed in affection thanks to the sisters at the orphanage where she grew up. At thirteen, she became a servant to a bitter landlady on a Charente estate. Her task is endless, in the fields, on the farm. She suffers from the insidious presence of Macaire, the family's nephew, who constantly prowls around her. In this oppressive atmosphere, Marie finds comfort only with Pierre, the stewards' son, and in the superb lands around the Bois des Loups.
What will become of Marie, soon to be a woman, struggling with the constraints of an era and an environment?
