US PREMIERE
Sponsored and presented by
By cutting through the fields to take her father lunch, Patricia encounters Jacques. She is eighteen years old, he is twenty-six. She is pretty, with the fine manners of a young lady; he is fighter pilot and handsome. A little bit of moonlight will do the rest during their second meeting. There will not be a third: Jacques is sent to the front.
The second encounter leads to Patricia's pregnancy. Jacques's rich parents claim its blackmail and Patricia and her well-digger father are the only ones to have the joy of welcoming the child into this world. A joy that the Mazels soon envy them and try to share, for Jacques is declared missing.
En coupant à travers champs pour aller porter le déjeuner à son père, Patricia rencontre Jacques. Elle a dix-huit ans, il en a vingt-six. Elle est jolie, avec des manières fines de demoiselle ; il est pilote de chasse et beau garçon. Un peu de clair de lune fera le reste à leur seconde rencontre. Il n’y aura pas de troisième rendez-vous : Jacques est envoyé au front.
Patricia attendra un enfant de cette rencontre. Les riches parents du garçon crieront au chantage, Patricia et son père, le puisatier, auront seuls la joie d’accueillir l’enfant. Une joie que les Mazel leur envieront bientôt et chercheront à partager, car Jacques est porté disparu…
