Based on Choderlos de Laclos’ ageless epistolary novel about deceit and manipulation, a quartet of another kind unites two stars of French cinema and stage in this highly ironic dialogue. Boiled down by the playwright to its basest and cruelest traits, Quartett is directed by a visionary director who stages this schizophrenic score for the second time.
