Following a period of illness during his holiday in Roquebrune, Sir Winston Churchill departs from Nice Airport in 1958. He sits in the back of a Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith, his head bowed as he concentrates on a cigar held between gloved hands. The limousine belongs to his U.S. publisher, Emery Reves, who is visible in the front passenger seat. Behind Churchill sits Reves's wife, Wendy Russell Reves. Raindrops on the car's exterior suggest a damp, overcast day for their departure.
