Fleurs de sang
Pam, fourteen, has killed her first lover. Five years earlier, she followed her mother Lily from cabaret to cabaret. Extravagant and naïve, Lily turned eroticism into artistic performance, while Pam watched over her. In custody after she murders her middle aged photographer lover, a fourteen year old Pam reflects back on the bohemian life she spent with her mother Lily, a free spirited cabaret performer. Lily tried to elevate her stripper performances from the level of erotic spectacle to artistic expression as she dragged her young daughter from nightclub to nightclub and hotel to hotel, but ultimately lost her at nine to the Paris child authorities. —Excerpted from the Harvard Film Archive Bulletin.
