In a village on the French Opal Coast, a drifter engages in a perplexing relationship with a young woman who has suffered abuse.

Story:

On the Opal Coast on the French side of the English Channel by a small village near the mouth of a river, a strange, tall man wanders. He sleeps outside, is often seen somewhere in the countryside kneeling to pray. He befriends a young woman from the village who brings him food. They walk together over the surrounding dunes covered with grass and shrubbery, along the marshes where the devil dwells, sometimes stopping to exchange a few seemingly insignificant sentences. They are clearly attached to one another without limiting either’s freedom, without there being any other bond between them. The man is so concerned about his companion that he commits a crime for her, but he is never accused of it. He evidently has healing powers, which come to light when another village woman calls him to help her daughter, who suffers from an unspecified illness. Although the unnamed man never seeks physical consolation from his unnamed companion, he is certainly not asexual. And finally we witness a miracle.
