BETTY BLUE

A landmark in French cinema, Betty Blue is Jean-Jacques Beineix’s erotically charged and visually intoxicating film that introduced the world to a new screen icon, Béatrice Dalle.

Laid-back handyman Zorg spends his time doing odd jobs on beach-front bungalows, making chilli and harbouring dreams of becoming a writer. His life is turned upside down with the arrival of the beautiful but volatile Betty. They begin a romance fuelled by intense passion but as Betty turns increasingly violent and self-destructive, Zorg tries desperately to halt her slide into insanity.
