Secuela espiritual de "La historia de O". “Les Fruits de la Passion” es un melodrama erótico ambientado en el Hong Kong de los años 20. Kinski, un europeo decadente con negocios en la ciudad, envía a su mujer a un burdel para profundizar en su amor física y espiritualmente. El tema de la sumisión, del sufrimiento y la ofensa que aparecían en la cinta de 1975 son retomados aquí, en cuyo burdel de fantasía se muestran viñetas de tortura, fetichismo y perversiones diversas. “O” debe renunciar a cualquier deseo para amar completamente a Sir Stephen, quien se deleita martirizándola mostrándole como ama también a otra mujer, Nathalie, interpretada por Arielle Dombasle. El trío se rompe cuando un cuarto personaje, un joven que envía flores a la bella encarcelada, se introduce entre la pareja protagonista para hacer suya a “O”.
