Directed by Tony Richardson and featuring a powerful central performance from Jeanne Moreau, Mademoiselle is a mesmerising psychological drama - an artistic and disturbing exploration of the darkest of carnal desires. A surpressed and sociopathic school teacher (Jeanne Moreau) unsuspectedly torments residents of a small French village with acts of violence and destruction. An erotic obsession with an ostracised outsider caused her behaviour to become yet more erratic but, as tensions in the community reach boiling point, will the villagers see beyond their prejudices?
