La Truite

Award-winning director Joseph Losey assembled a star-studded cast—Isabelle Huppert (La Cérémonie) and Jeanne Moreau (La Femme Nikita)—for this sex comedy. Frederique (Huppert) is a free-spirited and impish woman who has made an art of using her sexuality to get precisely what she wants from men. On a whim, Frederique leaves her disinterested husband and the family trout farm to travel to Japan with a wealthy businessman. Her enchantment soon gives way to reflection, navigation of the swiftly-changing sexual freedoms and responsibilities of a new era, and the quest for satori, the "world of ecstasy" experienced by her friend. But has Frederique grown up too fast, or not fast enough?
