Often exploring themes of addiction, sexual power games, and compulsive behavior, Barbet Schroeder's 1983 film
Tricheurs is a powerfully impudent look into the world of some rather glamorous gambling addicts. In yet another fascinating role, Bulle Ogier (
Discreet Charm of The Bourgeoisie, Maitresse) is cast among a stylish milieu of gamblers on the Portuguese island of Madera. There she becomes involved with a slick gamblers scheme to run the roulette wheel. Tricheurs also features an appearance from the film's cinematographer Robby Muller, long-time Jim Jarmusch DOP and collaborator.
