Juliette Janson, a housewife from the Paris suburbs, lives in a high-rise apartment with her husband and two children. As consumer culture in Paris booms, Juliette decides to start a part-time job as a sex worker to afford some of life’s little luxuries and escape suburbia.
The “her” is Paris, but it’s also everything: Only Godard could conjure the cosmos in a cup of coffee—which he does in this brilliant, candy-colored provocation. A landmark transition from the maestro’s jazzy genre deconstructions of the 60s to his gorgeous and inquisitive essay films of the future.
