We're in Dieppe, and the bustling harbor life allows a wide variety of people to indulge in a variety of trafficking activities.
Directed by Jean Maley, Port of Desire leans on a strong ensemble — Jean Maley, Alexandre Mincer, François Jaubert — 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 1969.
