Eva a vingt ans. Strip-teaseuse dans une minable baraque foraine près de Barcelone, elle décide un jour de rompre avec sa vie d’errance, d’aventures sans lendemains. De retour à Paris, elle retrouve Lucie, sa très snob mère, qui joue les marginales, et Peter, un peintre, peu attiré par les femmes, qui prépare une exposition pour Tatiana Gracchi. Un jour, Eva disparaît, se réfugie au bord de la mer, dans la maison de bois de l’une de ses tantes, « Sam Suffit ».

Sam's Enough (1992)
95 min
After trying a job as a stripper in a Barcelona carnival, Eva (Aure Attika) is ready for something new, so she heads over to France and becomes the roommate of a gay American artist (Phillip Bartlett) and works as the housewife for two wealthy older homosexuals (Claude Chabrol and Jean-François Balmer. After she gets settled, she takes a job at a government office for a while but then decides to have a child, which her obliging roommate makes with her the old fashioned way. He then returns to his usual preference, while Eva explores becoming an artist herself. From time to time in this easygoing comedy, Eva's similarly independent and quirky mother (Bernadette Lafont) shows up.
