Claire Darling (2018) on Netflix

Plot summary

Claire Darling, a recluse in the village of Verderonne, wakes on the first day of summer convinced that this is her last day. She has her antiques, paintings, music boxes and furniture carried out to the front lawn and offers them to neighbors and passersby for almost nothing. A young man helping with the sale is mistaken for her son, Martin, and the workers come from the quarry her husband once managed. A childhood friend of Marie Darling recognizes what is happening and telephones her. Marie returns from Paris after twenty years away and finds strangers carrying off her grandmother's portrait and the family furniture. Mother and daughter face each other over the sale, and Claire says the day has at least brought her daughter home.
