Sandrine (Carole Brana) has become vaguely dissatisfied with her life, but isn't fully aware of the depth of her ennui until she strikes up a conversation with stranger in the park who discusses his philosophy of the emotional dead end that traps so many in this day and age.

� l'aventure is a completely forgettable but not altogether bad erotic tale following the sexual (and very talky) self-discovery journey of young, beautiful and bored Sandrine.

Some of the philosophical conversations go on a bit too long but it's still an interesting film with some good performances (and some of the most beautiful actresses on the planet).

Sandrine, bored with sex and life in general, takes a year off from the rat race and meets some libertines who explore the intersection of sex, hypnosis and religious ecstasy. A bit reminiscent of a talkier and less exotic EMMANUELLE (1974), except this is pretentious, pseudo-mystical softcore that's only sporadically

A pretty good erotic drama that seems to be more interested in it's own idea's than mearly titilating the audience, and it is all the better for it. Revolves around Sandrine a young women who is bored with her fiance, her job and life in general. She leaves her fiance and her job and begins a quest of self exploration
