SYNOPSIS

Some acknowledge only the erotic etchings of Félicien Rops (1833-1898). Others see him as a moralist, portraying vice to better the cause of virtue. This film evokes an artist who treats the images of beauty and love on the one hand, and those of evil on the other, as the indissociable components to explore the limits of human consciousness.
