La derni egrave;re femme is a thought-provoking film by director Férreri that explores the role of men in modern society and within the confines of a small family. The film tells the story of Gérard, an engineer who is abandoned by his wife and left with their young son Pierrôt. When his factory goes on vacation, Gérard indulges in a relationship with their nanny, which leads to a complex and intense exploration of the struggles between the sexes. Gérard is completely driven by his male consciousness, represented through his interactions with his lover. However, when their relationship faces a crisis, his lover becomes friends with his ex-wife. In an act of protest and despair, Gérard takes a kitchen saw and castrates himself. The majority of this impactful event, like a stage play, unfolds within the confines of a high-rise apartment. Férreri critiques Gérard's machismo while also showcasing the despair and disillusionment caused by a monotonous life of work, living arrangements, and loneliness. The film leaves viewers with conflicting impressions, as it uniquely presents the question: Is this man a victim of his behavior or a sacrifice to women's all-encompassing resistance? La derni egrave;re femme is a must-watch for its bold exploration of gender dynamics and the human condition.
