Three French sisters visit their uncle on his island home. After his sudden death, the non-arrival of their boat to the mainland leaves them trapped in a ménage-à-quatre with his Tunisian manservant, playing subversive games in which traditional hierarchies of fashion, art, gender and colonialism are turned inside-out. This rare film is a Belgian co-production by Pierre Drouot and Paul Collet, with music by Arsène Souffriau, and will be screened in a new restored version by Belfilm and Mondo Macabro.
This movie will be introduced by Pete Tombs of Mondo Macabro.
