La marge

One of director Walerian Borowczyk’s most haunting and psychologically complex films, LA MARGE (“The Margin”) stars Joe Dallesandro as Sigismond, a happily married businessman who embarks on an intense affair with a sex worker (Sylvia Kristel of EMMANUELLE fame) while on a business trip to Paris. When he receives devastating news from back home, Sigismond throws himself further into a sordid world of sex, grief, and obsession. Borowczyk conjures gorgeous, dreamlike images set to an evocative soundtrack that includes Elton John, Pink Floyd, 10cc, and Chopin.

Starring Sigismond, Sylvia Kristel, André Falcon
