«Эдем» — это студенческое кафе, где тусуются молодые люди, курят травку, играют на гитарах и сочиняют всякие байки. Так начинается криминальный сюжет, постепенно переходящий в красивый сюрреализм и артхаус. То ли это чей-то криминальный план в этом «Эдеме» или может мастерски спланированный кем то ряд преступлений… В фильмах Ален Роб-Грийе вообще трудно отделить реальность от снов и фантазии, явь от сновидений. На лицо любимые приемы режиссера Ален Роб-Грийе — красивые нагие девушки, восточные напевы, красивые сюрреалистичные сцены
