Unlike Brass’s earlier historical epics ( Caligula , The Key ), Monamour is a contemporary, intimate chamber piece. It focuses on a bored housewife’s sexual awakening, a theme Brass would return to with obsessive precision.

The story follows (played by Anna Jimskaia), a young housewife married to Dario (Max Parodi), a successful but preoccupied book publisher. Feeling sexually neglected and trapped in a dull routine, Marta finds herself drawn into an affair with Leon (Riccardo Marino), a French photographer she meets in Mantua during a literary festival.

The film revolves around the tumultuous relationship between Martha (played by Nathalie Baye) and her two partners, Walter (played by Gérard Depardieu) and Didier (played by Pascal Cheremeteff).
