Directed by Paul Vecchiali

Drama

Film Synopsis

Rosa, a prostitute, lives in the busy Halles district of Paris.  Young and lively, willing to indulge any fantasy, she has no shortage of clients.  Today she is 20, and Gilbert, her pimp, has organised a banquet in her honour.  This is how she comes to meet Julien, a handsome young worker.  It is love at first sight, for both of them.  But the flame of true love is hard to ignite in this milieu, and even harder to keep alight...
