Roger Vadim's directorial debut broke box-office records and censorship taboos in its teasing display of eroticism in the sunny vacation playground of the Saint-Tropez seashore. It also made Brigitte Bardot an international star.
Bardot is Juliette, cinema’s original sex-kitten, a sumptuous orphan beauty who delights in nude sunbathing and playful flirting. Though pursued by a rich widower (Curt Jurgens) and attracted to the brawny fisherman Antoine (Christian Marquand), she marries Antoine's shy younger brother Michel (Jean-Louis Trintignant: The Conformist, Z). Despite her sincere efforts to "be good," Juliette gives in to Antoine's advances, setting off a chain of events that ends in fraternal conflict. The film climaxes in Bardot’s passionate mambo dance, her pent-up frustration and sexual confusion exploding as bongos pound away on the soundtrack.
