In the Argentine Pampa of the early 1980s, a mysterious Italian traveler tells two young lovers the story of a summer that seemed as if it would never end: Saint-Tropez, 1968 — the time of gold, music, and freedom. At the heart of the tale is Gigi Rizzi, a handsome and reckless twenty-four-year-old who, together with his friends, conquers the nights of the French Riviera — until he steals the heart of the ultimate icon: Brigitte Bardot. Their love, passionate and impossible, becomes a fleeting moment of pure light — a timeless “now” without past or future, lived as if the world would never change.
But summer, like every dream, must end. Revolution reaches Saint-Tropez too, reality takes its place, and Gigi finds himself alone, carrying with him the lingering scent of an illusion that will stay with him forever. When the train departs again across the Pampa, the two young lovers are unsure whether to believe the story — yet, in the glow of the sunset, the doubt remains that it might all be true. Because perhaps, somewhere, that summer never truly ended.
