Plot

Based on the famous novel with the same title written by Milena Agus. Gabrielle tells her life for twenty years. The woman tells her life, her marriage and loves those for which she sighed. And she tells that order, since Gabrielle lived all very late, since no longer expect anything from life that fate assigned her. After finishing World War II, she is forced to marry a man who only want to marry her to settle a debt with that family that gives him shelter. Tired of her own existence, the woman should go to a spa to be the "stones ill" (kidney stones) that she has been suffering for a while. In this peaceful place she finds another man, one of which would be dazzled, a man who falls in love passionately. But just when she feels the love in her heart, it is too late.
