action

After Manu is raped by several men, her brother blames her for her own fault. A dispute ensues, in the course of which Manu shoots her brother and finally fled. At the same time, Nadine strangles her roommate in an argument and shortly afterwards witnesses her best friend being shot by competing drug dealers; she also decides to flee. On their flight from the past, what happened and their lives, the two women meet and decide to break out together and travel through France.

You get the idea to take a woman's money card and then shoot her. They steal a car, run over the owner and from now on make targeted advances to all kinds of men, seduce them to have sex and then kill them full of hatred. Over time, they lose all inhibitions and shoot people as soon as they don't like something.

Reviews

“The fact that Baise-moi was banned from cinemas by censorship in France is not entirely incomprehensible, but exaggerated. Many Hollywood films are no less brutal, just not peppered with naked pornography. Rather, what speaks against the film is its lack of psychological credibility and its astonishing conventionality in the portrayal of female sexual pleasure. The two main actresses come from the background of the porn film and do their work on various male genitals with obvious routine. To see that, it would not have taken bombastic feminist ideologizations, as they were voiced in the censorship debate in the neighboring country. "

- Wolfgang Huebner, ap

“Sexuality is only articulated in images of unreal and deprived files that are perceived as obscene, and the grainy, restless and light-sensitive image gives it the appearance of documented reality. It is remarkable that cinematic taboos from the realm of sexuality are dragged into the light of the screen only with vehemence and severity. Before Baise-moi , these visual taboos were not used - in erotic love films, for example. The film scholar Amos Vogel called the latter the 'skipped chapters' in film history. Perhaps Baise-moi made it easier for these chapters to be written. "

“The film reflects the story in a relentlessly direct, pseudo-documentary style that terrorizes the viewer according to every trick in the book. Due to its fatal closeness to the visual jargon of the porn industry and its lustful portrayal of the orgies of violence, the film goes beyond most of what has been seen in the cinema so far and requires the viewer to be extremely resilient.
