1971 · 85 min · ★ 10.0

Jean. François. Xavier. Three names, three figures that personify the triple image of a being who lives before our eyes the stages of his evolution and his liberation from sex, woman and death. Freed from his constraints, he becomes himself and, in his eyes, the woman is no longer the provocative element of a certain guilt of which he carried the weight.
