Between Two Worlds

Famed author Marianne Winckler (Juliette Binoche) goes undercover to investigate the exploitation of working class people in northern France. She eventually lands a job as a cleaner on the cross-channel ferry and develops close connections with the other cleaning women, many of whom have extremely limited resources and few opportunities. As she learns more about the plight of these workers, Marianne struggles with her deception and tries to rationalize that it's for the greater good.
