About The Sex Window
A female journalist hangs out at the set of a porn-film in the French capital. She pens an article on the economy of lust. How come people cavort on camera so ecstatically? The cast and crew willingly answer her questions and she performs some of the moves as well, of course.
Directed by Gérard Kikoïne, The Sex Window leans on a strong ensemble — Brigitte Lahaie, Alban Ceray, Pascale — 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 drama titles of 1978.
