Marianne, a talented female painter, is commissioned to create a wedding portrait of Héloïse, a young woman who has just left the convent. The catch? Héloïse refuses to pose for the portrait, as she does not want to be forced into a loveless marriage.
To overcome this obstacle, Marianne disguises herself as a companion and secretly observes Héloïse during their walks along the coastline. As the two spend more time together, a passionate and forbidden romance blossoms between them.
