Summary
On the edge of civilisation live three young women - Magalie,
Marie-Steph and Barbara. Steeped in alcohol, they are bound to
one another by desire and loathing, trapped in a complex game of
domination and love. Magalie, the leader, subjugates the other
two with her bestial charisma and masculine power. The
simple-minded Marie-Steph is easily dominated, and so is her friend
Barbara, who is unaware of her physical beauty. One day, out of
boredom, the three women decide to hold up a baker’s shop. Having
shot the shop’s owner dead, they flee, and their life soon resumes its
normal course as though nothing had happened...
