Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
Marion (Charlotte Rampling), a sly and sophisticated French madam, convinces a beautiful bevy of Romanian women to board a bus and travel to Paris, where they believe lucrative careers as exotic dancers await them. Among those young women is ballerina Dora (Catalina Rahaianu), the gullible wife of Andrei (Mircea Diaconu). Much of the fun in this romantic comedy comes from his attempts to win Dora back and save her from a life of prostitution. Unfortunately, he must first contend with the wily Marion.
