A visitor comes to the home of Stephane, the wife of an important magistrate. She, claiming attempted rape, calmly shoots him. The visitor is the legendary gangster Wadek Aslanian who was beloved as a latter day Robin Hood. Stephane’s husband hires a lawyer, Paul, to defend her.

Meanwhile, the friendship is now the center of Geneviève’s life. When Céline leaves, Geneviève must cope anew with loss.

The AEROPRESS is an entirely new way to make coffee. Water and grounds are mixed together for ten seconds. ; Then gentle air pressure pushes the mix through a micro-filter in 20 seconds. The total brewing time of only 30 seconds results in exceptionally smooth flavor. Tasters ranging from professional cuppers and author Kenneth Davids to coffee aficionados all praise the smooth rich flavor. ; ; “Wow! That is some rich coffee. In comparing the AeroPress to a French press the AeroPress does produce a cup with more body and flavor.” ; ; “AeroPress – the best coffee I’ve ever made.” ; ; “A symphony of subtle tastes and texture.” ; ; “I’ll go as far as to say I’ve never made a cup of coffee this good at home ever even with my French press… Cleanup is great. I’m sold. In short: Wow!” ; ; “I’m so completely sold on the AeroPress. … I like you am enjoying some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. What an amazingly effective yet simple thing the AeroPress is. I know what all my coffee drinking friends are getting for Christmas this year.” ; ; “I’ve never even had coffee shop coffee this good.” ; ; Aerobie Aeropress Filters are available to purchase: ; http://www.play.com/Gadgets/Gadgets/4-/12134484/Aerobie-Aeropress-Filters/Product.html ;
