Strip-Tease

The first ever release on home video anywhere for this rarely seen feature starring Nico. She plays Airane, a young ballet dancer living in Paris, with dreams of stardom. In order to pay rent, she accepts a job in an upmarket strip club. At first, unable to go the whole way, she runs off the stage in tears. But she soon develops a unique act that captivates audiences and elevates her to star status. Featuring music by Serge Gainsbourg, this is the only mainstream movie in which Nico has a starring role. Features interviews with biographer Richard Witts and bandmate Lutz Ulbrich. English subtitles.
