Certainly one of the most harrowing divorce dramas ever made, Zuławski's one-of-a-kind genre pastiche has spy Sam Neill returning to his Berlin home from a mission abroad to discover that wife Isabelle Adjani wants suddenly to split up. Launching an investigation into the reasons for her ever-more-alarming behavior, he discovers a truth more sinister (and nauseating) than his wildest suspicions, as Zuławski's highly-choreographed cinematic delirium and Andrzej Korzyński's pulsating score push things light years past over-the-top.
