Temptation. Seduction. Obsession.

RomanceDrama

Georges Duroy travels through 1890s Paris, from cockroach ridden garrets to opulent salons, using his wits and powers of seduction to rise from poverty to wealth, from a prostitute’s embrace to passionate trysts with wealthy beauties, in a world where politics and media jostle for influence, where sex is power and celebrity an obsession.

VIBE

A lavishly produced, darkly witty descent into Parisian high society. It's a decadent, cynical exploration of ambition and seduction, where charm is currency and everyone is playing a game. Expect opulent visuals and sharp dialogue.
