The Blue Bicycle(2000)

The Blue Bicycle is a French series set in the late 1930s that follows Léa, a carefree young woman from a wealthy Bordeaux family who falls deeply in love with Laurent. When he chooses her best friend Camille instead, Léa's world shifts. As war looms, she flees to Paris, where she reunites with Laurent—now married to Camille—and meets the enigmatic François, a government official drawn to her. Laurent, called to the front, entrusts Léa with protecting Camille and her unborn child. But as German forces advance on the capital, the two women must abandon Paris and navigate the dangers of occupied France. The series weaves romance, betrayal, and wartime survival into a portrait of how quickly youth and privilege can vanish.
