The highlight of the movie is Matton, then known as Sylvie Meyer playing a young woman on "a spiritual journey from sexual bohemia to Buddhist nun. The central scene is a long shearing of M. Matton's hair and the shaving of her head as her character renounces sexual pleasure for the monastic life. Of course, the head shaving is the central erotic feature of the movie. Yet, the film is elegant in its way and well worth seeing, even if female baldness is not your fetish.
