When a rich marriage is arranged for Cheri, Lea decided that their relationship must end. However Cheri is reluctant to let her go. An ill fated May to December love affair set amongst the famous demi-monde Parisian courtesans, a haunting unforgettable love affair. The Last of Cheri carries on the story of Cheri who a decade later during the post war of the 1920’s finds it impossible to settle down with his new wife and friends. As he starts to age and his looks and reputation crumble he attempts to recapture the time of his youth and meets Lea again, however they are both a decade older and the past cannot be recaptured.
