About
Summary
A small cafe in the center of Montmartre is a safe haven of people who come with their secrets. Elena, a young immigrant, who wants to find a place to belong, is in a company of a painter tortured by absence, a seamstress who makes a memory a cloth, and a musician in the need of redemption. When friendships grow stronger and secrets are revealed, the cafe is more than a place of work, it is a lifeline. Elena finds out that it is not given but chosen through rain-slanted streets, home letters and nights in Pigalle. It is a human memory, human endurance, and human stringiness story, heart-touching and incredibly lovely, yet delicate as it is, and the Café on Rue Montmartre tells it.
