| The "Her" in this extraordinary film refers to Paris; the Paris that perhaps only Godard could illustrate in such a stark and impersonal way.
Inspired by a real article on housewife prostitution, the film examines Godard's theory that if you lived in Paris (at the time) one had to prostitute oneself to survive.
This "sociological fable" is shot through the eyes of Juliette (Marina Vlady), a housewife who spends one day a week in central Paris selling her body on the street in the hope that she will be able to escape the high rise suburban drudgery, in which she lives with her family, and find happiness.
A leading force of the French New Wave, Godard's creation is a masterpiece which is as radical and modernist today as it was at its conception.
