On an isolated Mediterranean island, Liza meets Giorgio, a married artist who lives there alone with his dog, Melampo. Liza becomes obsessed with him and dreams of being close to him. She is ready for any sacrifice for the sake of her love, including taking his dog’s place…
Stripped of glamorous costumes, Catherine Deneuve is at her most animalistic in Marco Ferreri’s absurd exploration of bourgeois discontent, also starring Marcello Mastroianni. In reducing an erotic obsession to the devotion between a man and his pet, Liza makes a mockery of heterosexual romance.
