Antoinette (Jeanne Balibar) is the Duchess of Langeais,
a married coquette who frequents the most extravagant balls

Montriveau (Guillaume Depardieu) first meets her, he falls
instantly in love. Flattered by his attentions, the alluring
Antoinette orchestrates a calculating game of seduction,
characterized by repeated refusals. When the humiliated
Montriveau eventually seeks his revenge, Antoinette's love
awakens. But it may well be too late for the star-crossed lovers.
Directed by Jacques Rivette (Va Savoir, La Belle Noiseuse),
