“a world of passionate love and eroticism – a secret romance of clandestine meetings….She [director Lou Jeunet] unfolds a beautiful story of early womens’ liberation and infuses it with elegance and tasteful sensuality.” (Cinemania)

“the highly-anticipated first film from Lou Jeunet, a respected writer and director in the French cinema scene…an extremely modern and uninhibited period drama about sexuality and freedom seen from a very female point of view…Lou Jeunet is a new talent to watch.” (Screen Daily)
