Prequel to "Courtesans, Part, "Messenger" tells the story of Pascale Kedari, a highly artistic teenager from the Middle East. On a first trip abroad, she is marooned in France after the revolution breaks out back in her homeland. In the course of the story, young Pascale is befriended by several local women. Among them: Matilda, a leftwing academic from the wrong side of the tracks; Veronique, a former prima ballerina, her brilliant career suddenly cut short; Sister Claire, a social activist nun with a secret; and Raymonde, an Olympic gold medalist, and celebrity. All these women love Pascale deeply, fully appreciate the girl's artistic talent, and want it known to the world. At the same time, each benefactor sees the teenager as a vehicle for the vicarious fulfillment of own frustrated adult ambitions. Propelled, she likes it or not to leadership of a growing social movement, Pascale is faced with a dilemma. Can she both win fame as an artist and answer the hopes and dreams of her fervent followers?
