Synopsis

A young woman is suspected in the stabbing death of her roommate Nora. Imprisoned in a convent, the girl’s seductive wiles hypnotize the cops and clerics that surround her. All submit to her sexual whims, and are drawn into a sado-masochistic world where fantasy and reality are pleasurably blurred.

Our take

Perhaps Alain Robbe-Grillet’s wildest cinematic vision of Eros, this devilishly entertaining film from the Nouvelle Roman pioneer explores the mysteries of sex and cinema. Featuring arthouse stalwarts Jean-Louis Trintignant and Michael Lonsale—keep your eyes peeled for a young Isabelle Huppert!
