Über diesen Film

Isabelle (Marine Vacth) is on summer vacation in the South of France when she takes up a desultory relationship with Felix (Lucas Prisor), a hunky German tourist. He is neither her emotional nor her intellectual equal. We watch her give up her virginity to him, only to cast him aside without a care days later. We next meet Isabelle in the fall, back in Paris, where we discover that she's set up a website to accept appointments from johns she will meet for sex in chic hotel rooms. She is a cool professional. But this does not mean she's immune to the effects of the sexual whims of and occasional rough treatment from men. It is only with one regular client that she allows herself to experience any pleasure. That is until the unthinkable happens and she's forced to deal with the consequences of her decisions. Presented over the course of four seasons, the mood of each characterised by a distinctive song, Ozon's film provides an unprejudiced glimpse into the adolescent female psyche. While he subtly hints at an economic subtext, Ozon perfectly captures the sense of fearlessly searching for your identity. 2013 Mandarin Cinéma -- Mars Films -- France 2 Cinéma -- Foz.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

I simply loved this film. Some say it lacks a sort of reality or realism to it as in real life the events wouldn't happen but I don't care.. The film is so beautiful and it handles the issue so well! Marine Vacth is such an amazing actress and handles the role with such grace and beauty that simply amazes me considering this is one of her first films. She is truly an amazing star who personally I hope to see a lot more of (not sure if seeing 'more' of her is possible after this film though). I thoroughly recommend this film to everyone! It is great!

Interesting film, very muted characters but a mysterious and intriguing watch, thoroughly enjoyed this film.

I have watched the trailer but I have not seen the movie but I am sure it will be very good.
