Bernadette has a yen to chuck it all and go back to nature, in this French-language Canadian film. That's just what she does after carefully leaving her wedding ring where her affluent husband, a lawyer, can see it.

They attribute these changes to something miraculous (perhaps taking a cue from her name), and hordes of needy people descend on her farm.
