SKINOPSIS

Jane March is a 13-year-old schoolgirl who starts up a sensual affair with a wealthy Chinese man. She goes full-frontal all the way in her journey to understand her sexual awakening. The sex is graphic and very realistic in this beautifully erotic film from director Jean-Jacques Annaud.

3 REASONS TO BUY THIS FILM

  • Jean-Jacques Annaud's follow up to The Bear but they couldn't be more different.
  • Jane March goes all out for authenticity, and that means sex scenes that look unsimulated.
  • And graphic shots of what's between her sweet legs.
REVIEW
Set in Vietnam in 1929, this adaptation of Marguerite Duras' story about a French schoolgirl is a sensual feast for the eyes and ears. The girl, struggling to gain independence from her difficult family life and trying to understand her own sexual awakening, begins a torrid and illicit affair with a wealthy Chinese man. Although they don't really approve of the affair, her family tries to manipulate the situation for their own benefit. Annaud captures the tension-filled colonial setting that serves as a backdrop for these displaced persons, and the film is aided by gorgeous cinematography. (Filmed in English)
