American Translation(2011)

“Chris" (Pierre Perrier) is handsome, tousled, young Frenchman with a penchant for sex - man, woman (probably chihuahua too if given the opportunity)... He meets “Aurora” (Lizzie Brocheré) - a young Franco-American girl and they set off travelling around rural France. Snag is, "Chris" has a bit of an asphyxiation fetish - and that leads to fatal results! As they continue to criss-cross their country in their camper van, their antics naturally attract the attention of the Sûreté! At times it is more erotic than sexy; and though there is nudity there is very little sex - it's more provocative than demonstrative, and that sometimes works. The problem is that neither character elicited any kind of emotion at all from me; and the gradual corruption of "Aurore" just lacked credibility. It is really very soft, kinky, porn with a theme that is rather basically photographed and uninterestingly self-destructive.
