She died as she lived - in a strange way. She surprised us, made us cry, but left us a rich and rare legacy: "the lightness of humor".When Zelie suddenly learns that her mother Caroline is seriously ill, her world falls apart. Her mother, such a wonderfully crazy, unique woman, simply cannot die an ordinary death. Her father was a well-known writer and her mother a talented film director. She married young and quickly became a mother: Africa, her two daughters, her lovers... but especially her wild dreams that belong only to her! She believed in energies, in divine and subterranean forces... So marginal was she that it made her almost as cruel as she was exceptional.
