Inspired by his own biography, Marguerite Duras recounts in a dam against the Pacific Indochina in the peculiar life of the family formed by a seductive teen-Suzanne, his brother Joseph and mother of two. Once a woman full of energy, the mother had tried in vain to cultivate an award that every year is invaded by the Pacific, and now has only one desire: to marry with Suzanne Jo, the unattractive son of a wealthy land speculator. Because Jo is very rich, so as to enable the mother of Suzanne rebuild the levees and pay off its many debts.
