Plot

A Special Relationship opens with war photographer Virginie Faure walking through the corpse-ridden streets of a deserted, bombed-out city and saving a child's life, eventually with the help of fellow-journalist Damian Gaudry. So begins a fortuitous, head-over-heels love story in the midst of death and utter chaos. But it's only after Virginie discovers she's pregnant that things slowly begin to spiral out of control, and she loses her emotional bearings.
