BRIEF CROSSING
from the controversial director of
Romance and A Ma Soeur
A Catherine Breillat film
On an overnight ferry ride French sixteen year old Thomas strikes up a conversation with English thirtysomething Alice. She invites him to share her table and as the evening progresses the naïve yet full of bravado teenager engages in mutual flirtation with his older companion. With the sexual tension building they head for Alice’s cabin.
From the controversial director of Romance and A Ma Soeur comes a compelling and explicit portrayal of a brief sexual encounter that leads to a bitter conclusion.
