“He uncovered their secrets.”

DramaRomance

Edgar is an artist living in Paris during the 1920s who believes that sex is a subject of vital importance, but almost no one discusses it with the gravity it deserves. With this in mind, Edgar gathers together a panel of fellow creative types at the home of the wealthy tycoon Faldo and his oddly accented spouse Sasha for an evening in which they will discuss their erotic lives without self-serving wit or exaggeration.

VIBE

A charmingly intellectual exploration of human desire and the pursuit of knowledge. It's a witty, slightly quirky, and surprisingly insightful look at sex, studies, and the complications that arise when curiosity takes over.
