Daughters of Sin

The fact that a tennis champion and a Formula 1 ace get stuck in a provincial town on their way to America due to difficult weather conditions may be justified. The fact that the two occupy two adjoining rooms in the only hotel in town is less so, because they are anything but friends. But a crowd of female fans, including a jealous lover, breathes explosive life into the dreariness. Who remains the match winner in the race for the favor of the horny groupies becomes the question of a fiery sex duel of a physical nature.

Directed by SX Kowalski, Daughters of Sin leans on a strong ensemble — Jean-Pierre Armand, Christoph Clark, Marie Noelly — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1989.
