“...but the devil invented Brigitte Bardot!”

DramaRomance

18-year-old orphan Juliette's unbridled appetite for pleasure shakes up all of St Tropez; her sweet but naïve husband Michel endures beatings, insults, and mambo in his futile attempts to tame her wild ways.

VIBE

A sun-drenched, bohemian haze of unbridled desire and melancholic longing. This film feels like a stolen summer romance, charged with a potent, almost dangerous sensuality that lingers long after the credits roll.
