- Synopsis
- Four wealthy middle-aged men decide to get together at a country villa and eat themselves to death. They are: Marcello, a pilot; Ugo, a chef; Philippe, a judge; and Michel, a television executive. After the first night, they agree that something is lacking: female company. They recruit three prostitutes and a local primary school teacher, Andrea. The prostitutes, disgusted, depart after a few days, but Andrea appears to be having the time of her life and stays the course. Although the food is magnificent, it soon becomes apparent that this is not the nicest way to go…
