After the Great War, Jean Charias, nicknamed the Red, returns unharmed to Corrèze. Baptiste Simoneau, who has lost his two sons, offers his daughter Pauline to secure the succession of the mill. She rejects the redhead; the village falls silent as the drama follows the rhythm of the water and the millstones.
