When the novel Sauf meets Bonnie and Clyde.

Once, Mylene loved a man. Together, they made the 400 strokes. Until the botched robbery of a jewelry store in Spain, during which the two lovers were caught. Mylène never saw Paco again: he was stabbed in his cell one night. Today, Mylène is free. She works in a warehouse in the Paris suburbs and lives in a maid’s room. Sometimes, for a weekend, she rents an apartment somewhere and imagines another life. The one she could have had if she hadn’t made the same mistakes. She dreams.
But this weekend, Mylene doesn’t dream: in the trailer she rented for the weekend, everything brings her back to Paco. The furniture, the objects, even her picture on the wall. It seems inconceivable, but it looks like she’s at his place.
