Velleda said:
Madame Claude is at the head of a prostitution ring that gives her power over both the French political and criminal worlds in 1960's Paris.

1 - Madame Claude and Sidonie are the two main characters. Virginie and Nadége have minor roles. There are also several other prostitutes who are named.

2 - Claude meets and talks to all the other women in the film.

3 - On several occasions Claude and Sidonie discuss business strategy, extortion, collaboration with the police and organised crime, their retirement plans.

The film is decent but forgettable.
