The film is set in contemporary Paris, where German filmmaker Thomas (Rogowski) embraces his sexual orientation through a fierce relationship with a young woman named Agathe (Adele). This impulse blurs the line between him and his husband Martin (Ben Weishaw). When Martin began his affair, he managed to regain his husband's attention and arouse Thomas's jealousy. To struggle with ambivalence, Thomas must either accept the limitations of his marriage or accept that the relationship has come to an end. Sachs' rooted investigation of human experience focuses on the similarities and differences between physical and emotional attractiveness, and puts forward the question of separating art from artists. Elegant cinematography is cleverly balanced with very complex performances, allowing his characters to settle down in quiet, uncomfortable moments and face their imperfections. The paragraph is a very intimate work that refuses to avoid the chaos of life.
