Plot

An affair between a suicidal woman and a gay stranger.

Sinekatalog’s take

Catherine Breillat's provocative film pairs a suicidal woman and a gay man in an explicit four-night encounter. Cold and confrontational, it is a polarising, often punishing study of desire and disgust.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
