Le Blé en herbe

Based on the eponymous novel by Colette, Le Blé en herbe recounts the story of Phil and Vinca, two childhood friends who spend all their holidays together by the sea. Though aged only 16, Phil meets a ‘woman in white’ who is much older than him and he becomes her lover. Then, in turn, he introduces Vinca to sexual love.. Moral constraints are thrown off in the search for pleasure without shame…
