About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
French silkworm trader Hervé is married to the beautiful Hélène. When an outbreak of disease ravages European silkworms, Hervé must travel to Japan to retrieve healthy eggs. After a long journey, Hervé finally arrives at a village where he can buy them. He becomes infatuated with a young concubine and goes to great lengths to see her again. But, when war breaks out in Japan, the concubine flees, forcing Hervé to return home to his wife.
Lush, nineteenth-century landscapes transport you from the silk mills of France to the quiet, mist-covered villages of Japan. This sweeping obsession follows a trader who risks everything to find a rare biological treasure and an even rarer connection.
