Claude Chabrol
Les Biches - Three's a Crowd
Seduction becomes a dangerous contest behind closed doors.
On the streets of Paris, the wealthy and enigmatic Frédérique becomes fascinated by Why, a young artist living on the margins. Their intimate relationship shifts once they retreat to Frédérique’s luxurious villa, where the arrival of architect Paul introduces rivalry, seduction and psychological cruelty. Claude Chabrol crafts a coolly elegant study of obsession and power in which attraction constantly changes direction.
De mysterieuze Frédérique neemt de jonge straatartieste Why mee naar haar luxueuze villa aan de kust. Daar raakt hun complexe relatie verstoord door de komst van architect Paul, die beide vrouwen naar zich toe trekt. Claude Chabrol maakt van deze sensuele driehoeksverhouding een stijlvol en onderkoeld spel van macht, verlangen en manipulatie.
