Story
The movie 'Avec tout mon amour' (2001) begins in Algeria, February 1903. After a trial involving a revolt where seven Europeans were killed in Margueritte village, Eugénia, a Spanish colonist's daughter aged thirty, commits suicide despite her passionate love for her husband Jean Corveler, who is the lawyer for the accused insurgents. The narrative then unravels backwards to reveal the reasons behind Eugénia's suicide. Key events include Eugénia's struggle to find her place with Jean amidst their complex relationships with others like Adèle and Dolorès (Eugénia's sister). Throughout, it becomes clear how Eugénia's individual destiny is intimately linked with that of colonial Algeria.
