Be aware of pacing. This is not a "hit-and-run" adult film. The first thirty minutes contain no explicit content, only suggestion and tension.

If you are a collector of vintage erotica, a student of pre-AIDS European sexuality, or simply someone who appreciates slow-burn cinema with explicit honesty, Maitresse pour Couple (1980) in its "Extra Quality" restoration is a mandatory acquisition.
