The Secretary Bird
2019, French. Directed by Dominique Thiel.

Hugh claims it’s Liz. His wife, on the other hand, has good reason to believe it’s her husband who strayed. Fortunately, Hugh will find a way to defend his love and save their marriage. He’ll use a tactic that seems absurd at first, but ultimately proves effective…
