Plot
A movie director does a new film against heroin consumption, and the producers are heroin dealers.
Sinekatalog’s take
A director making an anti-heroin film discovers his producers are heroin dealers. Garrel's treatment is intimate and raw, drawing on his own world. For admirers of personal, black-and-white-minded French cinema.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
