very young and beautiful young woman accepts an invitation to stay in the summer villa of an absent friend. Two men already staying there, "counter-culturalists" both, look on amused as she begins to bring home every night a different male from the nearby town.
Eventually, their mirth turns to curiosity about her views on her behavior, then consternation that they are ignored, and finally, desire enters the mix.
Rohmer chose the "actors" from among friends and friends of friends: their personalities are authentic and not dictated by script. Similarly, the dialogues and philosophical discussions are of the characters own thoughts. Perhaps this is why, in this film and "My Night at Maud's," the discussions seem alive, vibrant, and pertinent: they are not an abstraction but rather heart-felt.
The sensational young woman, who is absolutely believable as the somewhat unwitting temptress, not only seduced every male in the film: French director Carne became enchanted with her performance and cast her as the lead in his next film.
Follow Ups:

You should try to go chronologically!
You lucky guy! You have treasures ahead.
"Red Desert" and "Army of Shadows."
Next up, yet another Rohmer...
I'd have a hard time considering moving from the US mainly because of Netflix.
Anton is a bit boring, but that was my feeling thirty years ago, now as I myself has become I would have to reevaluated....
You want to emigrate more South? I mean Mexico? Or even more...Gaza stripe??
England, Spain (already speak the languages....), Italy, or France all seem interesting.
Not for the reasons you'd imagine but rather to give our six-year old more of a "global citizen" outlook.
Instead of losing your time to educate your kid ( GENES!) you should try harder to get a second child....
perhaps. Responbilities, of course, involve lengthy baby-sitting spells of at least one week until the child is 8.
Of course, a move to Europe is selfish, too. Living in the colonies is a little boring...
We will raise her/ he as a sweet Jewish* kid.
Punition must be.
Jewish kid. :-)
We all are for peace and a place for the Palestinians to live...
Now Hamas want ot destroy Israel...
the Palestinian people.
By maintaining its permanent settlements, all the while saying it wouldn't and other aggressive actions, Israel has made the most radical elements in Palestine the only ones to have legitimacy. This,in turn, has given violent leaders such as Ohlmert and Sharon political life where before they hadn't a chance.
American presidents have all, for the past thirty years, had varying success in keeping the peace: Bush is the first to let Israel do as it pleases and history will record this as another of his debacles.
When he's gone, the next president, assuming it's a Democrat, will make immediate progress.
Bush has failed at every single thing he's attempted. That is a first in history. It will not fail to record just that, either.
