Histoire
Parfait amour begins with Christophe, a young entrepreneur in his twenties, murdering Frédérique, his lover who is a doctor in her thirties with two children from previous marriages. The film then shifts to a police reenactment of the crime and an interview with Frédérique's teenage daughter before flashing back to the start of their affair. Throughout their relationship, Frédérique is attracted to Christophe's sweet side but is emotionally troubled due to her past divorces and ambivalent about her sexuality. Their relationship becomes strained due to Christophe's misogynistic friend Philippe and issues surrounding Christophe's own sexuality. The film explores whether their intense attraction ultimately leads to mutual destruction.
