Inspired by a real article on housewife prostitution, the film examines Godard's theory that those living in 60s Paris had to prostitute themselves to survive. Shot through the eyes of Juliette, a housewife who spends one day a week in central Paris selling her body, the film is a masterpiece which is as radical and modernist today as it was in its conception.
