Movie Haiku:Mesmerizing drama’s strong plot line is told almost entirely through sensuous music & exquisite visual imagery. Most of the action takes place in Paris, right before & immediately after the Nazi Occupation. Ricci, in the lead role, is a young Russian-Jewish woman searching for her father. Highly erotic. Adults only.
