While Solidarity takes on the Polish government, a Polish film director, Jerzy, is stuck in France making a film for TV. He's over budget and uninspired; the film, called 'Passion,' seems static and bloodless. Hanna owns the hotel where the film crew stays. She lives with Michel, who runs a factory where he's fired Isabelle, a floor worker. Hanna and Isabelle are drawn to Jerzy, hotel maids quit to be movie extras, people ask Jerzy where the story is in his film, women disrobe, extras grope each other off camera, and Jerzy wonders why there must always be a story.;;New Wave:;A command of French and a willingness to play Godard's intellectual game of references and quotations is a pre-requisite to full (perhaps reasonable) tolerance of this glossy-looking movie which boasts two Alain Delons and three cameramen. He plays a man who is knocked down by a glamorous Italian businesswoman (Giordano). While he recuperates at her lakeside home they begin an affair, but he subsequently drowns, only to be replaced by his more assertive twin, who takes over the woman's life. Delon, patently no longer his earlier vision of beauty, looks somewhat bemused - as do emerging audiences. SCREENED/AWARDED AT: Cannes Film Festival, Ceasar Awards, European Film Awards,
