Once respected filmmaker whose work’s no longer considered “cutting edge” by those in the know, Mick Farèse (well-played by handsome Philippe Gasté, best remembered for his performances in Jean-François Davy’s naughty triptych consisting of BANANES MECANIQUES, PRENEZ LA QUEUE COMME TOUT LE MONDE and Q) finds himself pressured by a sleazy, money-grabbing producer (pricelessly portrayed by veteran character actor Bernard Musson, who has appeared for Bunuel in THE MILKY WAY and THE DISCREET CHARM OF BOURGEOISIE) into producing an unflinching porno epic because sex is the only thing that audiences seem to be clamoring for these days. Assuming it will all be done in the best possible taste, Mick’s successful actress wife Nina (a sparkling, Carole Lombard type turn by beautiful one shot wonder Michèle Baron) agrees to star, fresh from baring all on the Paris stage. If only Mick could find inspiration to create that fabled fornication film that would draw the disparate opinions of both porn theater patrons and ivory tower critics who scoff at such vulgarity closer together. Enter Justine (frizzy-curled stunner Nadia Kapler), a nude dancer in a revue Mick and Nina saw that night before and who may just be a figment of their imagination as they frantically search for an angle that will make their sex saga stand out from the crowd.
