Plot.

A group of friends listen as one man tells them a story about a time when, in a small cafe, he discovered a peephole into the ladies' bathroom and became addicted to looking through it at female genitals. They ask him questions and come to conclusions about sex. This is a filmed, scripted version. Then, the actual person who this happened to relates the same story; this time, however, it is an unscripted documentary, in which the same things occur as in the scripted one.

Wiki.

Une Sale Histoire (also known as A Dirty Story) is an unusual short 1977 French film of two halves, or two related short films tagged on to each other, by French director Jean Eustache.

It concerns the factual tale of a man who finds a peep hole in the female toilets of a café - the story firstly being acted out and secondly being conveyed off-the-cuff by the man this actually happened to. Luc Béraud is assistant director on the movie.

The film stars Michael Lonsdale, Laurie Zimmer (credited as Laura Fanning) and Françoise Lebrun.
