Frederique (Huppert) works at a trout farm in the rural area. She is young & married to an effeminate young man, Galuchat, who grapples with his sexuality and has suicidal tendencies. Frederique is also disgusted by her father and his friend's behavior among village girls- 'taking them to his chalet' has an ugly connotation. It is revealed in constant flashbacks that she belongs to 'carefree girls club' where they perform rituals and swear to each other never give men what they want. Galuchat and Frederique meet an old couple, Rambert and Lou and their friend St. Genis, a rich business man while bowling. Rambert and St. Genis are immediately smitten by Fred. Soon she is rummages through high society and wrecks a havoc. But she never gives men what they want. Lou and Fred bond over their mutual understanding of men's folly.
It's all Huppert though. Her mixed naivete and nonchalance makes a hell of a complex, beguiling character.

, along w/young , does amazing amount of cardio in Figures in a Landscape. Things get more tense after Mac (Shaw) methodically shoots down one of the pilots off the helicopter. Now there is an army w/ automatic weapons pursuing their tracks. As they approach an arbitrary border to freedom in the snowy mountain, Mac's obsession - bringing down that symbol of oppression - a copter, takes over. Visceral & oddly captivating, it’s a very interesting film.
