The Film Chest’s latest
restoration projection, writer/director Robert van Ackeren’s controversial 1983
film, Woman in Flames, will be making its way to the DVD market place
on Oct. 21.
Eva (Gudrun Landgrebe — The
Berlin Affair, The Cat, etc.) is a student trapped
in a miserable relationship. The
university isn’t much better than the loser she’s seeing, so she kicks them
both to the curb and embarks upon the unlikely career of being a hooker. For the money at first, but it turns out
that she has a real “feel” for the profession.
She is soon an in-demand
dominatrix (kinky up-scale clientele), complete with the appropriate attire and
a lust of power (of a sexual nature).
The erotic nature of her
career — which she takes great enjoyment in — is soon complicated when she
meets and falls in love with a professional like herself. His name is Chris (Mathieu Carrière — Luther,
Young
Torless, etc.) and he bills himself as a professional “gigolo.”
Can this be a
relationship that can be maintained — juggled — or will the clients that they
attract be the serpent of jealousy that will be their undoing?
