The Girls of Kamare

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Girls of Kamare (1974) is a situationalist film by René Viénet. Unlike Viénet's previous work, Can dialectics break bricks? (1973), The Girls of Kamare includes original footage shot by Viénet.

The film is a montage of Japanese soft-porn / bondage drama set in a juvenile disciplinary school, and French 16mm hardcore pornographic film.

The plot follows a team of female heroes, forced into a disciplinary school, who revolt against the authorities and their screws. The original Japanese film ends in a successful riot which plays directly into Viénet's detournment. Unlike Dialectics, The Girls of Kamare is less self-critical and relies more on traditional conceptions of heroism.
