A film of surpassing strangeness, with some surprisingly potent erotic scenes. The Net seems remarkably silent on the subsequent career of Veronique Deschamps, who takes the lead role of the tomboy, Pietro. Can this striking young actress have made only a handful of movies? Don't be put off by the hearty settings in the Swiss alps -- you'll find no yodeling or cuckoo-clocks here. Warmly recommended for all admirers of French film.
