That out of the way, Agnes joins Marion in selling fruit and vegetables at the local street market, hoping to make enough money to support her family and pay back Mr. Billy and his right-hand thug, Micko (GAVIN KELTRY). Although her life is hard, Agnes enjoys life, a good laugh, and the thought of seeing singer Tom Jones when his concert tour passes through town.
As time passes by, Marion must not only contend with the hardships of being a single mother, but also with repeated encounters with Mr. Billy, an unexpected health crisis and the attention paid to her by a local French baker, Pierre (ARNO CHEVRIER), who's just set up shop nearby.
Different characters drink and smoke throughout the film, while one is a loan shark with a bad attitude who threatens the protagonist and punches one of her young kids in the gut. Beyond all of that and some tense family scenes related to the protagonist suddenly finding herself a widow, the rest of the film's categories have little or nothing in the way of major objectionable content. Even so, should you still be concerned about the film's appropriateness for yourself or anyone else in your home, we suggest that you more closely examine our detailed content listings.
