Diplomat Jérôme, on a resort vacation, meets teenager Claire. Though engaged to be married, Jérôme falls hopelessly in love with Claire’s knee. Realizing that to be revealed as a fetishist would be ruinous for him, Jérôme does not act upon his obsession, but longs to fulfill his yearnings…
Chronicling day-to-day struggles with desire and fidelity through his signature lightness of touch, Éric Rohmer takes us to the gorgeous Lake Annecy for this Six Moral Tales highlight. Starring Jean-Claude Brialy as the film’s neurotic center, Claire’s Knee is a whip-smart summertime comedy.
