Out of The Blue

Drama

What do you do when you know in your heart something is missing from the life you are so familiar with? 

Marion is a middle-aged mother and wife who makes the bold move of leaving her husband to start over. Independent but terrified, Marion’s world changes quickly when she encounters Claude, a beautiful and complex flamenco dancer.

Claude makes her feel truly alive for the first time and a casual friendship soon starts to look much more serious. To her surprise, Marion finds herself, midlife, in love with another woman. 

Together they struggle to accept their love without feelings of guilt but through mutual discovery begin to see themselves in a different light.

Skilfully acted and beautifully filmed, Out of the Blue is an endearing inspiration to anyone looking to start over.
