Directed by Yann Gonzalez

Comedy / Drama
aka: You and the Night

Film Synopsis

In the middle of the night, an odd threesome meet up in a cold apartment to prepare for the weirdest of orgies.  Ali, an attractive young woman with an American accent, and her eye-patch wearing lover Matthias are visibly excited over what the evening offers, as is the third member of their strange gathering, a pretty boy dressed up as a housemaid.  Then their guests begin to arrive and the party is soon under way.  First to come is a nervy blonde doll-like girl calling herself the Bitch.  She is followed by a young man of inordinate charm, a woman who conceals her face and a sad-looking poet who goes by the moniker The Stalion.  The latter has good reason to lament his failed career, which is all down to an over-developed libido that has made it impossible for him to focus on the job in hand.  Once all the guests have arrived, they begin by exchanging lurid stories, most of which are too fantastic to believe...
