Henry&June
Synopsis
The story takes place in and around Paris, France in 1931. The story told is one of a love triangle between the Millers and Anaïs Nin. She is in a stable relationship with her husband Hugo, but longs for more out of life. When Anaïs first meets Henry Miller, she sees in him a rough man from New York. He has a talent in literature and is working on his first book. Henry is not afraid of life, but, rather, is intoxicated by it.
Then June comes to Paris, and Anaïs is drawn to her. At the start, she marvels at the strength of the woman but soon finds herself in love with her. June is openly bisexual, and that, in itself, is a dangerous temptation for Nin.
Anaïs must make a choice between her two lives, and Henry Miller is willing to accept her decision.
