Contrainte par corps

I don't know why, but after the first twenty minutes, I thought about L'AVEU, from director Costa Gavras. First, it takes place in a foreign country, an unknown foreign country, where freedom of speak and act is not the most common word...See what I mean? It is not really connected to a political matter, but not so far either. I am a bit surprised that this film is partly directed by Serge Leroy, I don't recognize his trademark here. It is a strange film, not uninteresting, but some ingredient is missing, I quite don't know exactly what. I did not know this film, and am happy to have discovered it. This unknown country settings scheme reminds me another French movie: LES AVEUX LES PLUS DOUX, from director Edouard Molinaro. A rather close plot, made in (1971). In terms of woman's prison, this is a really bad movie, nothing to do with CAGED nor WOMAN'S PRISON ....The scenes between the inmates are totally lame, terrible, it looks like some nude prison films, exploitation grindhouse material from the seventies.
