Narrow Gate

La porte étroite

"Because I hold the hope of meeting you again, the most dangerous path is always the best in my eyes."
Alyssa and Jerome are childhood sweethearts. Alyssa loves reading, often reciting poetry and literature with Jerome on a bench behind the garden. They spent a long but carefree childhood in the Normandy countryside. Love gradually blossomed between several young men and women their own age. At first, they secretly loved each other, each harboring secrets and troubles. At the height of their love, they bonded spiritually, determined to become better people for each other, and unable to tolerate any imperfection. However, Alyssa, seeing the ordinary life of others in their marriages, began to doubt the end of love. She sought eternal love and firmly believed that immortal love existed, but the path to eternity was a narrow one, the door to enter a narrow gate that only "a few" could find...
