  On the streets of Paris, Rosa ˜la rose' (Marianne Basler, Va savoir) is the belle of Les Halles. With no shortage of clients, she is beloved by her fellow working girls and spoiled by her pimp Gilbert (Jean Sorel, Belle de Jour). For her, this is a charmed life - that is until her 20th birthday arrives. Across the floor, she locks eyes with Julien (Pierre Cosso, An American Werewolf in Paris), a blue-collar worker who sees something deeper beyond her fun-loving façade. Almost Shakespearean in its execution, Paul Vecchiali's underseen drama explores class consciousness and female sexuality with startling precision. Anchored by a magnetic central performance from the then 20-year-old Marianne Basler, Rosa la rose, fille publique is a true hidden gem.LIMITED EDITION BLU-RAY SPECIAL FEATURES2K restoration approved by Paul VecchialiUncompressed mono PCM audioInterview with critic David Jenkins (2025)Archival interview with director Paul Vecchiali (1985)Archival interview with actors Marianne Basler and Jean Sorel (1985)Newly improved English subtitle translationReversible sleeve featuring designs based on original promotional materialsLimited edition booklet featuring archival and new writing by Marina AshiotiLimited edition of 3000 copies, presented in full-height Scanavo packaging with removable OBI strip leaving packaging free of certificates and markings
