Monamour is a 2005 Italian erotic romance film directed by Tinto Brass and starring Anna Jimskaia.
Plot
Marta is a young Nymphomaniac housewife, married to a man named Dario, who works for a successful book publisher and is wealthy. Despite loving her husband, Marta finds their sex life dull and predictable, having resorted to frequent masturbation to satisfy herself. Marta often writes in a journal to express her feelings.
While Marta and Dario are staying away from their home in a hotel in Mantua during the Festivaletteratura, Marta visits Palazzo Te. There, Marta is followed by a stranger. The stranger takes pictures of her as she tries to walk away. Eventually, the stranger catches up to Marta, forcibly kissing and groping her, before she is eventually able to break away and run off.
Later that night, while Dario is dressing for a party, Marta informs him of the assault, which he dismisses as a fantasy born of her dissatisfaction. Marta insults Dario and tells him she enjoyed the encounter, at which point he jokingly dares her to go to the party without wearing any panties.
Marta and Dario arrive at the party, with Marta having taken Dario's dare seriously and worn no panties, without his knowledge. At the party, Marta encounters the stranger again. The two move to a remote location where Marta begins giving the stranger a blowjob, only to be interrupted when Marta's friend Sylvia and two others find them. Marta and Sylvia walk to the bathroom together, leaving the stranger and Sylvia's friends behind. In the bathroom, Marta describes her sexual problems to Sylvia, who suggests that she cheats on her husband. Sylvia reveals one of the two others she came to the party with is her secret lover, named François, and claims her husband has improved sexually since she had an affair with him.
Returning to their hotel room, Marta describes her encounter with the stranger in detail to Dario, and they have very quick and mediocre sex together, with Marta still unable to achieve orgasm. While Dario sleeps, Marta masturbates on the hotel balcony in front of several onlookers.
In the morning, Marta receives a letter from the stranger, referring to himself as Leon, who asks her to meet him at a restaurant. Thrilled, Marta begins to dress, before seeing a letter from Dario also asking her to meet. She destroys both letters and leaves to meet with Leon.
After arriving at the restaurant, Marta drinks several glasses of wine and waits for over an hour before Leon arrives. Once he arrives, Leon jokes with Marta while fingering her under the table. The two leave for the bathroom without eating.
Dario enters the hotel room, searching for documents he had forgotten, and finds Marta's journal which she had hidden in a drawer. He reads it, learning of her dissatisfaction with their marriage and sex life, as well as the full details of her encounters with Leon, which at this point he had still believed to be fantasy. Dario places the journal back where he found it before leaving the hotel.
Back at the hotel room, Marta writes in her journal. Dario walks in on her writing, at which point he confronts her about his suspicions of her cheating, yelling at her, hitting her, and calling her a slut. Marta leaves to take a bath, while Dario drinks and trashes their hotel room. Marta falls asleep in the bath.
Marta wakes up alone, and finds a letter from Dario in which he apologizes for his actions and asks her to come to the closing party of the Festival with him. She calls a phone number that Leon gave her and begs him to meet with her again. He obliges and directs her to another hotel.
Marta walks into the hotel Leon informed her of and the front desk clerk directs her to Leon's room. Marta enters Leon's room, where he lies smoking in his bed. They have quick sex together. After they both orgasm, Marta falls asleep, and Leon sits and draws her in a sketchbook. After she wakes, Leon puts a blindfold on Marta. He takes photos of her while she poses for him. The front desk clerk enters the room and strips naked. Marta has sex with the front desk clerk while Leon photographs them in various positions. When Leon is done taking pictures, they all have a threesome. Afterwards, Marta tells Leon about the party Dario wants her to attend, and admits her sadness about having to return home. Leon reveals the drawing he made of Marta, saying it will help her overcome her feelings.
At the Festival's closing party, Dario finds Sylvia and asks where Marta is, to which Sylvia brushes him off.
At another party, Marta dances in front of Leon while a band plays, letting her breasts fall out of her dress and flashing several onlookers. After the song she dances to ends, Marta and Leon have sex, while others avert their eyes or look confused and shocked. Another song plays as Marta has an internal monologue about the sexual experiences she's had. The song ends as Marta and Leon both orgasm.
Marta returns to her hotel room, trying not to wake Dario as she searches for her things. Dario wakes and yells at her, asking her where she was overnight. When Marta tells Dario she was dancing with Sylvia, he calls her a liar. Marta tells Dario that if he read her journal he would know why she is lying. He throws Marta on the bed and has anal sex with her while degrading her, and the two finally enjoy sex together for the first time in years.
While the credits play, Sylvia and François run into Leon, who is smoking by his car. Sylvia gets in the car with Leon. After Leon glances at Marta's balcony, the pair drive off, leaving François alone. François looks at the ground, and notices a pair of panties that have been left behind.
