Plot: When ALICE ET MARTIN begins, Martin (Alexis Loret) is a young boy living a pleasant life with his hairdresser mother, when he learns that he is to go to live with his father, whom he hardly knows. Once in the care of his father--a cruel and cold man--Martin is extremely unhappy and attempts to fake illness in order to escape. When the film continues, it is ten years later and Martin is hurtling out the front door of his father's estate. Running recklessly into the French countryside, he spends the next several weeks living like an animal, feverish and hungry. Finally, he arrives at his brother Benjamin's doorstep, only to find Alice (Juliette Binoche), Benjamin's best friend and roommate practicing violin and annoyed at Martin’s unannounced appearance. As Martin acclimates to Paris, he begins to fall in love with Alice, and once declared, their passion runs fast and wild, leaving Martin's brother and everyone else behind. While on a trip to Grenada, Alice reveals to Martin that she is pregnant and Martin falls sick with guilt and fear over elements of his past that he cannot reveal. As the two attempt to fight for their love, Martin faces his past and Alice realizes that her love for Martin is the most important thing in her life.
