Jeux de langues très particuliers

After a car accident, journalist Paul Gillas finds himself trapped at home, his leg in a cast. He spends his time observing the sexual antics of his neighbors with his binoculars. This gives him the idea of writing a pornographic novel. Paul continues to write his manuscript while he engages in various sexual games in the neighborhood.

Directed by Michel Caputo, Jeux de langues très particuliers leans on a strong ensemble — Richard Lemieuvre, Nadine Roussial, Hélène Shirley — 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 1980.
