WARNING! This film contains prolonged sex scenes of an explicit nature.

After Sandrine (Sabrina Seyvecou) and Nathalie (Coralie Revel) are fired from their job in a strip club where one was a barmaid and the other a stripper, they become friends and decide to achieve financial and social success through sex. And they are good at it! Easily landing jobs in a bank and seducing Delacroix (Roger Mirmont) a married middle age top-executive. Until they meet their match in Christophe (Fabrice Deville), the heir of the company with an evil reputation…

Sex, murder, incest, insanity and even the Angel of Death are part of Secret Things. The film starts as a “girl power” movie and grows fantastic and bizarre, revealing itself in the end as a morality fable.

Though his work has been little seen outside of France, writer-director Jean-Claude Brisseau’s reputation precedes him: his unique voice has earned him the title of French cinema’s “bad boy”. His work focuses on violence under the surface of social life, mysticism, morality and the irrational. All themes that can be found in Secret Things.

Cinephiles in France adore Brisseau and Secret Things was voted Best Film of the year in 2002 by the legendary magazine Les Cahiers du Cinema.
