Synopsis
Set in an elegant early-20th-century Parisian brothel, 'L'Apollonide' follows the lives of its inhabitants who are essentially owned by the madam. The women face various challenges such as debt due to expenses exceeding earnings, unwanted pregnancies, opium addiction, aging, and violent clients. Despite these hardships, there are moments of camaraderie, friendship, and affection among them. Some clients occasionally discuss marriage but it's unclear if any expectancies exist. The madam struggles with her landlord and seeks help from influential clients. The women enjoy a picnic one summer day and attend a wake together. On another occasion, they have an evening out wearing masks. The film concludes with a scene of contemporary Paris.
