Karl's Birthday

Synopsis

A girl arrives at her girlfriend's house after going missing for 5 years. She discovers that her girlfriend has become a prostitute and her clients are some of the newly elected Marxist Party leaders.
At first the girl's explanation for her disappearance seems impossible, but by the end of the film we realise her bizarre story might actually be true.
In French with English Sub-titles.
