Greenes Please don't spend money on this.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

coricim In Europe, we are suffering from the pressure of the Christian upbringing (which actually is a mainstream on a specific direction where the body and the sensations are not important, but only the soul). This movie finds the time to bind the both in a up to date search for meaning, a challenging endeavor, considering the deep routed structure of our culture. The puritans and the erotic movie lovers alike will see in this movie an erotic exposure with long philosophical intermissions. Beautifully crafted and bringing an equilibrium between two parts, the movie represents an inner search of Sandrine for finding the sense of living, which, as in all hero stories, is not so obvious.

rodrig58 "What is life, what is pleasure, what is love?" is asking the man on the bench (Etienne Chicot) towards the end of the film. Really, who can answer? And I would add myself: why people get married? Some only for two months, as another character in the film ? We have many scenes worthy of a porn film with explicit sex, very nice indeed. And we got on the other hand scenes of dialogue between the main character, Sandrine, and all the other characters, in which she tries to find answers to the toughest questions of the humanity. Well played, a little boring, but captivating. Carole Brana, Nadia Chibani and Lise Bellynck, like Three Graces, are very convincing in the roles of three women seeking at all costs the Absolute Ecstasy (through mega-orgasms).

Irishchatter OK to make this short and sweet. We meet a girl Sendrine who isn't satisfied with her boyfriend because hes always working late and both never had much sex. Then she meets a weird looking old man who is a taxi driver and seems to be interested in too much astronomy. Next she talks to this guy Greg who she cheats on and the boyfriend leaves her. Can't say I blame him because she should've called the relationship off. Also I forgot to mention, Greg is a hypnotist so I think thats the reason why she was so turned on by him. Anyway Greg brings Sendrine to his workplace and he introduces her to Mina & Sophie. Then Greg decides to hypnotize Mina and suddenly falls in love with her when really he was with Sendrine so why the hell would he jump the gun to cheat on Sendrine? Why was everything all over the place when Mina woke up, is Greg much more then that? Even Sendrine, she also jumped the wagon. She 'seemed' to fall in love with the man. However we don't see what actually happens. Ladies and gentlemen, don't waste your time on watching this movie as your head will go crackers with questions still remained!

ronchow This film attempted to be more than a skin flick by blending some more serious, philosophical elements into basically a story of sexual pursuit. It was not a bad mix - until this 'levitation' scene which I think ruined everything. We all know levitation through mental power is physically impossible so I don't understand why director Brisseau chose to bring it in.Sandrine, the protagonist in the film, was not happy with conventional sex with her boyfriend, and made an effort to seek pleasure in other ways. So over the course of the film you see beautiful women doing it, and what they did is pleasant to watch. An older man, an ex-physics professor, came into the story and he in some way played a fatherly role to Sandrine, educating her on other aspects of life including the universe and basic physics fundamentals such as the speeds of sound and light. What is good about the story is the interlacing of sex and physics appeared to work in some way too.In a nutshell I think this film is worth viewing for some of the erotic scenes, and the dialogues between Sandrine and the older, wiser friend. It could have been a much better film if other fine tuning was done and the absurd scene omitted.
