Emmanuelle Bercot the director and star of this French film of a not particularly attractive, over-sexed thirty-something who does everything to wear out her welcome as completely sensible adult and an outlandish artist who apparently is over-compensated and does not have enough dignity or anything else more interesting to do to keep herself from corrupting a minor, a 13 year old boy named "Clement." She uses cinema verite "peep show"-like home movie style to fashion a "too long" both as a film and a statement on her subject look at something degrading to anyone with serious pretexts as a responsible artist. Made in 2001, it is one more reason to be ashamed of today's film-making industry that would give an award to something so repulsive and morally bankrupt.
