Depraved Relations

A finely executed French drama which manages to avoid sensation to obtain its interesting effects. A shallow and selfish young Parisienne photographer seduces the young wife of a business.... The photographer's immortality ensnares the young woman in a betrayal of her middle-class values. However, despite the attempts of the photographer to exploit the woman's situation, her genuine substance and intelligence provides for an interesting solution.

Directed by Jean-Paul Savignac, Depraved Relations leans on a strong ensemble — Mona Heftre — 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 1975.
