The Pit of Loneliness (Olivia)
Plunging the viewer and the main character into a lion's den, director Audry invites viewers behind the doors of an elite 19th-century boarding school for young women, a world almost entirely without men.
The two mistresses of the house, Miss Julie (Edwige Feuillere) and Miss Cara (Simone Simon), are at war; they rouse passion, hatred and unexpected reversals of loyalty competing for the affections of their students.
