BroadcastChic Excellent, a Must See

AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

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.

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!

sl-roxxxer This is not actually a film but a book of explained deep desires in mankind.The director and the writer Jean-Claude Brisseau attempts to covey the idea how internal sexual feelings are aroused.And specially he try to imply those from the character Sandrine.Sandrine wishes to explore the pleasure when she is not given the desired pleasure by her husband.Through her desired pleasure she begin to be free and yearn the bliss of life.The viewer has a question whether she found the bliss of life or not. The psychiatrist is the conveyor of À l'aventure.And specially the old man(taxi driver) gives the wanted ideas by word directly and purely.The connection of bliss of life with Indian Yoga and its phenomenons are given by him with a blend of basic western science concepts. The film is a mix of orgies,some niche concepts of Christianity and it reveals the hidden emotions of every men and women. Finally as a theme I see that the bliss of life is not always connected with physical carnal sexual pleasure but a deeper emotion.

kosmasp If you see the directors work as a trilogy (first of them being released 2002) and this being the last part of that very loosely based trilogy, then I don't think there is much arguing, that he seems to have saved the best for last. The story seems more coherent, though the trademarks are still there. By that I don't mean the beautiful women, but the talking about everything. Trying to understand feelings or the world in general I suppose.Not that you'll get answers that are satisfying (no pun intended, other scenes in this might be very satisfying), but the movie tries to get into the head of our main actress. The talk about freedom and boredom/routine may challenge you to think about a few things. Maybe it won't, but that is the clear intention of the director. The supernatural element is kept low this time around, but you'll get a fair share of that too. An (erotic) adventure you may want to take
