Great movie adaptation of Sebastian Japrisot novel, it tells a story about troubled woman (great role by Isabelle Adjani) who tries to capture and kill the men who raped her mother. By coincidence or not she finds them, but it turns they are not the men she was searching for, and in the end she ends up in loony bin. Japrisot novels are best described as psychedelic crime fiction so it's pointless to analyze them and best to enjoy them on a visceral level.
