Description
Four alienated people meet at an isolated hotel where their identities begin to merge as they become absorbed in a ritualistic power game. Duras' first film as director is a psychodrama based on her own play written in the wake of the 1968 street demonstrations in Paris. Duras' method, which she followed in subsequent films, was to write the scenario and film quickly in a matter of days, stripping the work to its basic elements.
