Synopsis:

From the internationally acclaimed master of erotica, David Hamilton (Bilitis, Tendres Cousins), comes this journey through innocence, beauty and sensuality. Paul Thomas Myler (James Mitchell) is a celebrated sculptor and recluse who has hidden himself away in a tiny village in the South of France. By the sea he spies a beautiful young ballet dancer, Laura (Dawn Dunlap), emerging like the vision of Venus. A tragedy befalls the sculptor. Blinded by a fire, he falls in a chasm of despair. But it is the young beauty, Laura, who teaches Paul a new way of seeing. Featuring the ethereal beauty of 16 year old Dawn Dunlap and Bond girl Maud Adams (Octopussy), Hamilton's tasteful images directly combine the romantic with the erotic romantic in a classic portrayal of the first stirrings of sexuality.

Sculptor Paul meets a former great love again after a long time -- but is much more impressed by her daughter Laura, who looks now like her mother when Paul was in love with her. Laura likes him very much too, but her jealous mother prevents any further contact. She allows him to make a sculpture of Laura, but only from photos.
