Infirmières du plaisir has this curious blend of clinical detachment and erotic exploration. It’s set in a sex clinic, which feels both avant-garde and oddly voyeuristic. Olinka, our nurse protagonist, navigates this landscape, where the therapy sessions often serve as a backdrop for the various videos they feature. The pacing is a bit uneven, but that just adds to its charm, I think. What stands out is how it captures the liberation of the 80s, all wrapped in a slight sense of absurdity. Practical effects are minimal, yet they manage to evoke a rawness that’s quite engaging. Performances are understated, giving it a unique tone that straddles both documentary and drama.
Infirmières du plaisir is relatively obscure, with few physical copies making it a bit of a gem for collectors. Its limited availability in certain formats adds to its allure, but don’t expect a wealth of extras or remastered editions. Interest tends to be niche, drawing in those who appreciate the quirks of 80s cinema, particularly with its unconventional themes. It's worth keeping an eye out for the rare VHS or DVD prints, as they can occasionally pop up in specialized collections.
