Description

Bertrand Blier directs this French-language drama starring Anouk Grinberg and Charlotte Gainsbourg. Joelle (Grinberg) and Camille (Gainsbourg) are two friends who set out on a series of unlikely exploits while trying to understand their own circumstances. Encouraged by the corrupt Doctor Worms (Gérard Depardieu), the girls begin to bring down an entire town by helping the spread of a sexually transmitted disease.

But when their adventures then take them back in time to the years of the Nazi occupation, it all becomes too much for them.
