Paris, 1968. In the heady youth culture of Summer 1968, students in Paris erupt into what becomes a national rebellion, nearly toppling the French economy and their august, king-like President Charles de Gaulle. Amid the turmoil, Blanche Lanyon is on her own mission to create a journalistic career in mid-life, struggling against a failing marriage, a controlling, aristocratic family and a devastating health diagnosis. And as her path crosses de Gaulle’s in his time of crisis, he unwittingly gives shape to her future.
