In Cannes, 1953, Wallis Simpson, Duchess of Windsor, and Jimmy Donahue, an heir to the Woolworth estate, walk along a sunlit road. The Duchess, in a patterned dress and glasses, holds the leash of the Windsor's pug. Donahue wears a short-sleeved shirt and trousers, carrying a jacket over his arm. They stroll past parked vintage cars, including a Citroën Traction Avant, Peugeot, and Renault 4CV, as strong sunlight casts long shadows across the pavement. The scene is framed by the dark hood of a car in the immediate foreground.
