Her parents marry her to Jos\u00e9 (\u00c0lex Brendem\u00fchl), an honest and loving Spanish farm worker who they think will make a respectable woman of hers. Despite Jos\u00e9\u2019s devotion to her, Gabrielle vows that she will never love Jos\u00e9 and lives like a prisoner bound by the constraints of conventional post World War II society until the day she is sent away to a hospital in the Alps to heal \u00a0her kidney stones. There she meets Andr\u00e9 Sauvage (Louis Garrel), a dashing injured veteran of the Indochinese War, who rekindles the passion buried inside her. She promises they will run away together, and Andr\u00e9 seems to share her desire. Will anyone dare rob her of her right to follow her dreams?<\/span><\/em><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><span style=\"font-family: arial, sans-serif;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/tv.apple.com\/us\/movie\/from-the-land-of-the-moon\/umc.cmc.2dx63nl06kvw9ga5qta0dipan?0=%5Bobject+Object%5D&amp;cmp=rt_where_to_watch\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH NOW<\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FROM THE LAND OF THE MOON | 2017 &#8211; 120&#8242; &#8211; Drama,\u00a0Romance.
