Inspired by a collection of Greek myths, LA PERSUASION tells the story of Veronique Durant, a middle-aged professor who is driven by her rigid passion for Philosophy. Seemingly underestimated by her counterparts, she casually navigates the male dominant field. Challenged, yet enamored with Veronique's intellect, Nicholas, a vain and handsome young student, tragically mistakes Veronique's modest disposition as a form of vulnerability.
