When the Student Surpasses the Master

Mixing the sumptuous visual sophistication of 1970s French erotica with the twisted excesses of fetish cinema, Education Anglaise is an overlooked classic from legendary adult movie director Jean-Claude Roy that scores 10 out of 10 on the kink-o-meter!

After her parents are killed in a tragic love triangle gone wrong, innocent young Sylvie finds herself  in the care of her uncle, a decadent libertine who immediately packs her off to a boarding school that specialises in ‘English education’. This means a Victorian approach to discipline and correction from the staff – including a suspiciously butch new tutor who arrives at the school just as news of an escaped prisoner from the nearby prison breaks.

This controversial, perverted and VERY un-PC shocker features a guest appearance by X-rated superstar and cult movie legend Brigitte Lahaie (Faceless; Fascination; Paul Raymond’s Erotica) and has a cast of naughty schoolgirls headed by Obaya Roberts (Pénétrations spéciales), all of whom are subjected to the sort of spanking and discipline that has made this film a hot potato for film censors for decades. Now, you can see it uncut and unashamed for the first time ever in the UK, restored to its former glory and presented in a spankingly new print with brand new extras.
