- TriviaDirector Malgorzata Szumowska revealed Joanna Kulig, who in the film plays a prostitute, was so afraid of the scene where she is naked with a client who is peeing over her. "It was amazing that for three months she was afraid of that scene. But what was challenging was that when she starts to do it, she did it very fast. In a few hours without any hysteria, no questions." During that scene Kulig wanted to hear classical music and asked that not all the crew were on the set. "For me it was very difficult to keep concentrated!" - the actress said. "The scene was funny. On the sixth time [the juice machine] was broke so we had to stop. And everybody started to laugh. I had to be very concentrated. To have a serious face thinking about the subject. And I started to play and for two minutes, 'Sorry! We have to stop. This machine doesn't work with the juice!'

Featured review
French movies with Juliette Binoche +++
Juliette Binoche, a amazing actress, she can play and probably have played all kinds of roles, and makes this movie lift at least +2.
French movies are always a pleasure to watch. The stories never sweet and Black and white (as in American movies) and leaves a lot to the viewer to interpret.
The film highlights a more occurring phenomena in todays society where young "normal" women turns to prostitution to supports their life. The film takes a objective view although some of the writer's views shines through.
Its is definitely a film I would recommend, if you are after more than dumb entertainment.
