An emotive portrait of class differences in French society, as Nelly is a restless young woman in an unhappy bourgeois marriage who decides to leave her husband in favor of the leather-clad, unemployed wild-boy named Loulou, who’s insatiable sexual appetite forms his primary charm. As their relationship deepens, it becomes unclear who is exploiting who.
