Louise

About the show

Louise, a seamstress, loves her neighbor Julien, an artist, but her parents oppose their marriage. When Julien asks her to run away with him, Louise hesitates because she loves her parents too. She eventually leaves home and moves with Julien to a cottage overlooking Paris, where she is celebrated by their bohemian friends. Her mother arrives with news that her father is ill. Moved by her parents’ distress, Julien lets Louise return home. Her father recovers and welcomes her, but Louise longs to be with Julien again. When her father angrily orders her to leave, she runs back to Julien.
