The meandering quarrels, beatings, and post-coital chit-chats all have the feel of work-shopping actors being put through an exercise rather than real life, even the life of a sexually-obsessed French person.

Arguably Maurice Pialt's best film, a startling coming-of age tale about a girl who who explores her sexuality against the setting of a dysfunctional, incestuous family. In her heartfelt performance, Sandrine Bonnaire makes a stunning screen debut.

a punch in the stomach after a fifth of whiskey, a horrorshow of sexuality where it simply shouldn't be.

A cogent French film about the subtle ways a troubled family warps a young girl's passage into adulthood.
