In the politically charged backdrop of 1968 Paris, Bernardo Bertolucci directs this provocative drama that follows Matthew, a reserved American student played by Michael Pitt, who becomes entangled with a charismatic French sibling duo. When he befriends Théo (Louis Garrel) and his twin sister Isabelle (Eva Green) at the Cinémathèque Française during a student protest, Matthew is drawn into their isolated, bohemian world. Inside their lavish apartment, the three engage in a series of increasingly intense psychological and erotic games, testing the boundaries of intimacy, loyalty, and identity. Their relationship blurs the lines between reality and cinematic fantasy, as they reenact scenes from classic films and challenge each other's deepest insecurities. As the outside world erupts in revolution, the trio's private universe becomes a powder keg of jealousy, desire, and manipulation. This NC-17 rated drama explores the raw, intoxicating nature of youth and obsession, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere where every glance and gesture carries dangerous weight.
