Angelique has been a successful stripper and continues to work in a lap dancer club. She has many friends with whom she shares this world and has had four children, one of whom was adopted by another family.
Angelique is in her 60s and a client who has loved her for two asks her to marry him; she is very fond of this man and the idea of bringing her whole family together for marriage invites her to accept.
She begins a cohabitation with him but his body seems asleep. Angelique is used to a different life, to strong emotions, to freedom. No one can really own her only she decides with whom and when and no one can afford to disrespect her.
Angelique marries and with emotion shares this moment by reuniting all her children.
The man she marries loves her unconditionally but Angelique's path is not programmable. Her decision irrevocable.
"Woman on a par with man is her own body but her body is a different thing from her," said Simone De Beauvoir and Angelique seems the embodiment of this.
A highly sophisticated film for refined sensibilities.
