About Ladies House of Pleasure
A lovely summer day in Paris. Roger and Martine are on their way to work. "Work" is a euphemism because Martine is a prostitute in Pigalle. She is saving money to buy the house of her dreams in the country. Her husband Roger "works" for the same goal, but in a brothel for women. There, duchesses rub elbows with businesswomen, militant members of women's lib and other female pleasure-seekers.
Directed by Pierre Chevalier, Ladies House of Pleasure leans on a strong ensemble — Alix Mahieux, Daniel Darnault, Pierre Taylou — 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 comedy titles of 1976.

Serge Pilardosse has just turned 60. He has worked since the age of 16, never unemployed, never sick.

Pushed by Catherine, his wife, he gets on his old motorcycle from the 70s, a "Mammut" which earned him his nickname, and sets off in search of his pay slips.
