About “La tregua”
Forty-nine-year-old widowed accountant Martin Santome, in good health apart from varicose veins, has a good salary and three moody children, and is about to retire. Expecting a quiet retirement of gardening or guitar, he instead falls passionately in love with his shy young employee Laura Avellaneda, and their happy, irresponsible affair is suddenly cut short.
