Set over the course of a single night, Simone Barbès or Virtue follows a young porn theater employee who drifts through Paris, finding chance encounters, sexual transactions, and fleeting conversations that blur the line between desire and morality. Marie-Claude Treilhou’s stylish feature debut from 1980 is a brilliant work of New Wave inspired cinema.
Featuring a reading by Katie Lane before the screening on February 15.
