Félix Maritaud is outstanding in this depiction of the seedy and sordid life of a young Parisian prostitute in love (sadly, unrequited) with another prostitute. The grim and risky extent of their existence is captured superbly by Camille Vidal-Naquet. It is a story about gay men, but need not necessarily be considered solely in a specifically gay context; this narrative could - and almost certainly does - apply to a great many people involved, willingly or otherwise, in the sex industry. It is, essentially, a love story - and that makes this all the more poignant and individual. It isn't an easy watch, but the craft with which this has been constructed makes it a must-see.
