SUCCESSIVE SLIDINGS
OF PLEASURE

What time did you come home?

Why were the blinds pulled?

Where'd you go on vacation?

Do you like eggs?

Can you swim?

You know a man named Boris?

How many shoes do you have?

When was your first communion?

What are you? Actress?

Dancer? Model?

Call girl, cover girl?

Script girl?

Someone came.

Someone else was here.

Someone came.

Nora's dead.

I'm alone on the beach.

The sea breaks at my feet.

Someone else came.

Do you recognize this?

You don't recognize this?

Shit, no!

It was found in your room.

Maybe it was Nora's.

They found your fingerprints on it.

No other traces?

Only from the other cop who searched
the apartment after the murder.

Did he take much?

I'm talking about this!

The murder weapon?

No. You know that.

So what's it to you?

It could have been
the murder weapon.

It's a bit of glass,
a toy like children play with.

So, you keep claiming a man
you know nothing about...

but who seemed
to be following you for weeks,

suddenly entered your house.

How'd he enter?

With his keys.

He had a key?

A copy, of course.

- How'd he get them?
- He had it made.

We kept ours under the doormat
when we were not together.

Nora and I only had one.

One day he took it

and had a duplicate made
at the locksmith.

How do you know?

I only suppose so.

Or he said he'd lost his key...

and had the locksmith
work on the door

when we were both out.

- Or maybe -
- That's enough!

Guesswork isn't your position.

You asked me to cooperate.

Maybe he took our key
and left us the duplicate.

Once we noticed
it didn't have the same band.

If this man exists,
he didn't use a key.

The inspector found
the lock forced.

The killer came from outside.

No, you could've forced the lock...

as a part of setting the scene.

Please continue with your version.

With or without a key,
this man entered your home

and he calmly tied your friend to her bed
so he could kill her at ease.

I'm the one who tied her.

I told you.
We were playing.

She was the model for a painting.

It's true,
there was no easel in the room,

nor unfinished or blank canvas.

I Wanted to take a photo
and then Work alone in oils.

The inspector must have seen
the brushes and paintings.

Only red paint?

Yes, why not?

When all was set up,
the killer arrived

and put a knife
in Nora's breast?

- Scissors!
- Yes, yours.

With only your fingerprints on them!

Because they are mine.

He wore black gloves.

Why would he do that?

He was probably insane
because the brothels had been closed.

Maybe he, too, wanted to play.

Isn't that
what they call a “transfer”?

And you just sat and watched?

You're putting me on!

Going to rape me
to make me confess?

Leave me alone,
you dirty man!

That's a classic trick.
It won't help you at all.

He tried to kiss you?

You mean rape me?

And kill me by stabbing me
in the belly and between my thighs.

All men are maniacs.

They say you're guilty of murder.

Accused! That's different,
almost the contrary!

Come in.

They say you stabbed
a beautiful girl in the heart.

Was she your friend?
Did you love her?

I don't know.
I guess she loved me.

That means nothing.

She had long hair,

red lips and green eyes.

They're lying!
I didn't kill her!

I only thought
it'd make a pretty corpse.

Maybe you'll kill me too?

You're not pretty.
Your robe hides you too much.

Will you strangle me?
Using what?

I don't need to.
I have a magic power.

I only need to pronounce
a certain phrase.

I've known it for some time now.

It was at the seaside
with our French teacher.

All the girls were crazy over her.

I wanted to be alone with her.

She was fickle and would have
private chats with anyone.

One day We went
for a Walk on the cliffs.

It was too high
and the edge was unstable.

The path was too close
to the edge.

Now, love is going to slip.

Are you crazy?

Her heart stopped.

Your lips are bloody.

I tried mouth-to-mouth
resuscitation.

She didn't drown.

She could have lost her
breath in the fall.

What are you up to?

Listening to music.

This might be a murder weapon.

Your tales are a lot of crap.

So let it drop,
if you'll pardon the expression.

Theme of broken glass.

Talk to doctor about it.

Shit, I cut myself.

I better suck it.

Will you suck it?
If not, I might die.

Now it's you who'll die.

Maybe you ate some glass.

There was a woman's shoe

under glass in your room.

What exactly is it?

A fetish. We dipped it
in the holy water of Notre-Dame.

It's for hustling.

When we're broke,
Nora goes whoring.

Me too, sometimes, but it's more
dangerous when you're under eighteen.

We find it very entertaining,
like an adventure or a party.

The blue shoe's a talisman
against bad luck:

Cops, crack-ups, VD
and trouble in general.

Stand up.

Spread your legs.

Bend it!

Arch your back.

Dirty whore.

Maybe you'll pick up a sadist
who'll want you to -

Hello, Miss.

Sit down.
Make yourself comfortable.

You're a prostitute too?

Yes, like everybody nowadays.

And you like it?

It's pleasant enough...

and excites the mind,
if you understand.

You mustn't be a slave to it.

I understand.

It's better to ask for
a lot of money

and do things
that are more unusual and dirty.

I'm ready.

Good-bye, Miss.

We're going to torture this whore...

but rape her first.

We had a wild time that day,

How did she bleed?

A phony African fakir
taught me a trick.

I'll show you one day.

You're a monster.

Here's lawyer David.

Nora.

What?

- Who are you?
- I'm your lawyer.

You look like Nora.

I doubt it.
Stop playing games.

Likeness, repetitions,
substitutions, pretense. Enough!

Your case is bad enough as it is.

What do I think?
They don't guillotine little girls.

Shut up, idiot.

You're innocent,
but you try to prove the contrary.

Why doesn't the judge come anymore?
He was nice.

He's sick.

It's my fault.
He's going to die.

He ate glass and drank my blood.

Don't play games with me.

I'm hereto help you get out.

Your spoiled brat imagination
is a waste of time on me.

Just tell me about Nora
and your connection with her.

Our exact connection...

Connections, police connections...

sexual connections...

inverted connections...

Nora was a bitch.

She scared me
and was always punishing me.

I had to kneel
and eat my soup on the floor,

nude,
my hands tied behind me.

When she was broke,
she made me sleep with men.

Depraved men,
like all men are.

Sometimes she'd watch
and caress herself.

Days when I couldn't...

because I was bleeding...

she'd tie me on the bed
and whip me with a dog whip.

She'd scare me by playing dead.

You're a beached ship,
an open shell,

a sticky bitch,
a crushed frog.

You'll go to hell.

You'll be burned alive,
disemboweled, impaled,

buried alive.

Fish slipping
through the overly-thick algae...

caught in the iron bars
of the sheetless bed,

reddened on the spearhead
that rips the silk beneath the skin

when the sea is receding...

with dead algae in the evening,

a black border edged
in white foam.

Without moving the other hand
nor looking to the sea...

in the sand
it drowns the violent wind

and the pale, slow, cold knife
slips into the flesh.

The body pauses in a last sigh.

I am the sole cause.
Death passes.

Blackbird.

Black beauty, weary seagull.

Sure, that's nice and cheap.

It's over.

It doesn't hurt anymore.
Don't cry.

It'll be all right now.

I'll paint you that way,
as St. Agatha.

- Why St. Agatha?
- She was the prettiest.

She was martyred
on her wedding day.

They tore her white gown

and tore off her breasts
with red-hot tongs.

She's always painted that way.

What do you do in bed at night?

I say my prayers.

Afterwards,
all alone in your bed?

You caress yourself?

Maybe you do it wrong?

I'll teach you.

I read an article by a doctor

who gave advice
for both singles and couples...

with scientific words:

Vulva, algolagnia,

cunnilingus.

That's really disgusting.

What have you done?

Sister, you'll be punished.

Here's your lawyer,
daughter of a demon.

The Sisters look upset.
What's wrong?

It's their problem.

You know how nuns are.
They have odd private relations.

Really? What sort?

Sadomasochist.

Shall I do your hair differently?

Stop.
This is serious.

What?
That I'll be guillotined?

Will it hurt?

Listen.
You must help me.

What about the shovel?

What shovel?

Don't be a fool.

The one found
in your cupboard.

The investigators are curious

because you couldn't explain
its presence.

It's odd to have a shovel
in a city apartment.

Tell me why.

To kill the killer.

Explain yourself.

The man who spied on us
had a duplicate key

so we wanted
to defend ourselves.

Where did you find it?

In the basement.

A shovel was there?

Must have been.
How do I know?

I'm trying to help.

So you refuse to leave here
when it could be so easy?

I want to get out.

You've no idea what goes on here.

The cells are very clean.

So are the nuns
and the prisoners,

but for the least error
we're taken below

to the underground dungeon.

It's horrible.

It's medieval.

Come on.
Calm down. I'm here.

You've had a bad dream.

Enter.

Hello, my child.

You're not as I expected.

- You heard about me?
- Of course.

I'm the shepherd of all lost lamb.

I'm interested
in every fresh arrival to this flock.

Sister Julie says you want
to confess a crime -

That is my client.
I'm only her lawyer.

I'll begin again.

To confess a crime
that mankind doesn't punish enough:

Invention.

Are you hurt?

No. Why?

It's red paint,
not blood.

A splash of our young artist's work.

I see.

I'm somewhat reassured.

I'm going now.

That's a hard chore.

It's good exercise.

I wanted to ask you...

I heard you receive

corporal punishment
if you misbehave.

Punishment?

Don't worry.
I'm a lawyer.

I heard of dungeons,
chains, whips... even worse.

I've never seen such things.

Pity.
It might be amusing.

Really? For whom?

For the spectators.

Are you hurt?

No, it's nothing.

I must have been scratched
by a button or bitten by a mosquito.

I didn't notice.

You're a lawyer?

Can I help you?

No.
But you don't look like one.

Why not?

A lawyer is like a judge?

If you wish.

Or maybe quite the contrary.

What a strange lawyer.

The devil's advocate perhaps!

- You chose her?
- She was appointed.

Ah, not a holy appointment!

Beware of these people!

Beware of this place!

Why, Father?

Accusation is a prologue to crime.

Confinement entices vice!

Religious prisons are schools of sin.

Vice, Father?

I'm not your father!

I'm pastor
of the Non-United Church.

This place is hell!

Don't act holier-than-thou.

I saw your game
with that Devil-branded creature.

But Father,
where's the evil?

Evil is there...

and there...

...and there!

One Sister often touches me there.

I thought it was by accident.

What? Poor child,
tell me the details.

As many as possible,
for your salvation.

I've seen acts
I don't understand.

Is that what you mean?

Acts between whom?

Nuns and prisoners,
mostly the pretty ones.

Tell me! Quickly!

Describe it all

or the God of Anger
will burn you alive over a slow fire.

Father, I dare not.

Speak, you whore!

So I told him
what he wanted to hear.

That's why you requested paints?

Yes, isn't it pretty?

Don't you like modern art?

Get dressed
and wash your body,

if that's possible.

How can I wash myself
in this pail?

- All the perfumes of Arabia -
- Hands off!

Slimy, criminal, shameless child!

One can see
you're an assassin.

I don't understand.

Jesus was innocent

but condemned because he had
a talent for irritating people.

I'll tell my lawyer
what you said.

Tell her! Do you know
where she is right now?

And what she's doing?

Follow me!

That's an order.

Look, Sister,
it's St. Veronica's cloth.

Now.

I'll get it open.

Caress me!

- Here?
- Yes.

Better than this, idiot.

Last night I dreamt
the pastor was marrying me

but when I knelt to pray,
he caressed me.

His hand groped through the lace
and up my thighs to my genitals.

I knew he was sexually obsessed.

He won't last much longer.

He'll commit suicide.

All who approach you
are perverts, insane.

But it's all
in your little mind.

How's your girlfriend?

You have too much imagination.

I don't know
what you think you saw.

Sister Julia saw too.

I only saw you in a nightgown,
like a Sleepwalker.

You say Sister Julia hates you.

So she'd say anything
to hurt you.

Who talks of hurting me?
That's not within your power.

The reenactment is tomorrow.

Try not to act foolish.

I'll take you
to your apartment.

The police will meet us there.

The judge too,
but probably not the same one.

Probably not the same one.

Listen.

Father, listen to the blood
pounding to escape.

Hear the flow
of pleasure no love can purify.

Have you seen a young girl's blood
streaming on her flesh like fire?

Touch my breasts and hips.

My body's a sweet,
violent sea slowly flowing

away and beyond me.

Father, exorcise me!

Leave me, devils.

I'm already sick and old now.

Exorcise me.
Rip my dress.

Claw my delicate skin.

Crush my flesh
in your hands and arms.

Leave me.

Leave me in my tomb.

Punish me,
if you still are able.

Once you'd have
burned me as a witch

after prickling my body
with needles to find the Devil's mark,

hidden in the most secret spot.

You'd have thrilled
at my cries and gasps.

It's too late.

Leave me, demon.

Libertarian!

Li...ber...tarian!

Offense!

Structure!

Disorder!

Relapse!

Evidence.

Reenactment.

Pleasure.

Recidivism.

Permutation.

Relapse. Disorder!

Toad.

Rape.

Parricide.

Division.

Inversion.

Bitch.

Games.

Sperm.

Sloth.

Whore.

One pair of shoes...

two pairs...

three pairs...

Theme of broken glass.

Blood.

The sea breaks on the beach.

So, what do we do?

We wait a little.

Wait for what?

Well, for the prosecutors,
the police superintendent,

all the people who have to be here
for the reenactment.

Who will play the murderer?

I don't know,
a cop probably.

Maybe that guy
who's on guard at the door.

And to play Nora?

They surely have someone.

When is it supposed to start?

Theoretically, right now,
but they are always late.

We're always waiting
for someone, or something.

What are you doing?

Well, the reenactment!

They aren't going
to arrive right now?

In my opinion, if they are all here
in an hour, we'll be lucky.

I'm thirsty.

Do you want some?

It's amazing
how much you look like her.

You are insane!

Here, put this on!

Shit.

Above all,
do not scream.

It's going to stop
and they won't know anything.

I think I'm going to -

You have no more blood.

You're going to die.

You're beautiful.

There. It's over.

The reenactment won't take place.

Your innocence is finally proved.

We found the murderous voyeur,
and he made a full confession.

Are you injured?

Really?

Then we have to start
all over again.
