Short description

Rémi is a man trapped in a deteriorating marriage. When his wife is unexpectedly killed in a car accident, Rémi is left with his stepdaughter, Marion, who chooses to stay with him rather than live with her birth father. After the initial shock passes, Rémi is caught off-guard when Marion begins expressing her attraction to him. Initially repulsed, Marion's mature beauty wears him down as he finally caves to her seductions.

What's left behind the scenes

  • Ariel Bess’s parents sued the film’s distributors and producers over a poster depicting the young Bess sitting on Patrick Devereux’s lap with a bare chest. The actress’s mother argued that placing such a poster could be seen as “sexual exploitation” of her daughter’s image. The lawsuit was lost. The judge ruled in favor of the producers, stating that Ariel Bess’s image was “clearly exploited more in the film than on the poster.” Her mother’s argument that the same image in the film and on the poster could have a completely different context was not taken into consideration.
