Her dream is to open a store here with her boyfriend from her hometown. However, what she does to gain nationality is a sham marriage to a drug-addicted young man named Claudie. The lonely Claudie adores Lorna, but she has a secret that she must never let him know... The beautiful and sublime melody of Beethoven's piano sonata at the end of this masterpiece of love will stay with you forever.
