Be selfish with your time.
Be selfish with your energy.
Be selfish with your body.
Be selfish with your emotions.
Be selfish with your mind.
Let them take it personally.

The soft, diaphanous aesthetic of Marie-poupée (1976), dir. by Joël Séria, a problematic, subversive French psychosexual drama with horror undertones, tackling the lurid, uncomfortable subject of fetishism and sexual repression. A seemingly ordinary mundane situation takes a dark, subtly disturbing turn as the naive, delusional young woman with a doll-like appearance falls pray to dark impulses associated with male fantasies. The archetype of the virginal ingénue is taken to sinister extremes in this gripping depiction of an emotionally stunted lifelike doll with a distorted view of sexuality, who is only just starting to feel physical cravings. The two male figures in Marie’s life are the cold, passionless doll collector who deprives her of intimacy and a predatory man who rapes her. The doll shop owner’s odd obsession with dolls and his treatment of the girl as a fragile porcelain doll is a condemnation of objectification and its ‘othering’ process. Whilst the film’s subject seems sinister, the way it’s depicted on screen is quite subtle, and the pleasant aesthetic contributes to this disguise, as it all looks like a beautiful silky pastel dream.

“Water is something you cannot hold. Like men. I have tried. Father, brother, lover, true friends, hungry ghosts and God, one by one all took themselves out of my hands.”
