Dessous

About This Movie

So, 'Dessous' is this quirky little comedy from 2001 that really plays with the absurdity of its premise. You've got this impeccably dressed salesman, right? He's just there, waiting for customers in a high-end lingerie shop. Then enters this oddball character who can't help but revel in the texture of the garments – it’s a bit off-kilter, but that’s where the charm lies. The pacing is deliberately slow, allowing the tension between the salesman’s suspicion and the customer's strange satisfaction to build. There’s something about the performances that feels authentic, almost like a stage play. It’s this unexpected exploration of desire and the humor that springs from discomfort. It's definitely a unique watch, if you’re into those offbeat narratives.
