A pair of goddesses descend to Paris to search for—and battle over—a magic stone that will allow them to remain on Earth. Quieter in tone but more mysterious than CÉLINE AND JULIE, DUELLE marked the beginning of Rivette’s collaboration with cinematographer William Lubtchansky. With Juliet Berto and Bulle Ogier.
