Destroy, She Said (Détruire, dit-elle)

Introduced by John Mowitt, professor of Cultural Studies and Comparative Literature, University of Minnesota

Two men and two women, all afflicted with mental illness, create their own social order within the walls of a rural asylum by teasing each other with games that border on the erotic. When rules are broken, tensions flare and loyalties are tested. 1969, 35mm, in French with English subtitles, 90 minutes.
