What happens

est un film suisse alémanique réalisé en 1995 par Christof Vorster. La saison touristique passée, Jacqueline, sa sœur Helen et son mari Hans continuent à loger dans l'hôtel Belvédère, situé loin de tout, près d'un lac. Tous trois semblent vivre en harmonie mais en Jacqueline couve un désir secret, casser la routine, faire exploser le train-train quotidien. Quand un jour, au volant de sa Buick, elle renverse Mark, un jeune homme, elle pressent que l'accidenté va changer sa vie. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
