Synopsis

Hadewijch (Julie Sokolowski), a young novice Sister, is a fanatic Christian making herself suffer by fasting and standing in the winter rain. The Mother Superior (Brigitte Mayeux-Clergot) expels her deeming her blind faith dangerous. She becomes Céline again, daughter of a Parisian diplomat. She meets a young man named Yassine (played by Yassine Salim), but tells him that she cannot fall in love with him because she is in love with Jesus; she is still a virgin and planning to stay that way.

« Le gars » (comme l'appelle le générique) campe seul aux abords d'un village, dans un paysage de dunes et de marécages. Il ne semble avoir qu'une amie, « la fille », une jeune fille d'une ferme avoisinante, douce et sobrement habillée en « gothique ». Celle-ci se fait abuser sexuellement par son beau-père (croit-on comprendre), et lui demande protection. Au début du film, il tue ce beau-père de sang froid. Mystique qui prie au milieu de la nature, cet ermite est aussi exorciste : une mère le sollicite pour guérir sa fille qui semble habitée par le démon.

In a series of thematically-linked vignettes, a couple's attempts at fulfilling and consummating their romantic relationship are continually thwarted by the bourgeois values and sexual mores of family, church, and society. In the course of seeking sexual release and satisfaction, involving the man imagining an advertisement has come to life of a woman's hand rubbing herself, then later she tells her mother she hurt her finger, then a waiter at a party rubs a wine bottle in a similar fashion and the woman sublimates her sexual passion by fellating the toe of a religious statue before finally French kissing her father. The man's penchant for committing social taboos, like making love in the mud during a religious ceremony and slapping her mother, seems to excite the woman. He stumbles away from the father and daughter kiss to her bedroom where he throws a burning tree, a bishop, a plow, the bishop's staff, a giraffe statue and handfuls of pillow feathers out the window.
