English Summary:

A Woman Is a Woman (French: Une femme est une femme) is a 1961 French film directed by Jean-Luc Godard, featuring Anna Karina, Jean-Paul Belmondo and Jean-Claude Brialy. It is a tribute to American musical comedy and associated with the French New Wave. It is Godard's third feature film (the release of his second, Le Petit Soldat, was delayed by censorship), and his first in color and Cinemascope.

The film centers on the relationship of exotic dancer Angéla (Karina) and her lover Émile (Brialy). Angéla wants to have a child, but Émile isn't ready. Émile's best friend Alfred (Belmondo) also says he loves Angéla, and keeps up a gentle pursuit. Angéla and Émile argue about the matter; at one point they decide not to speak to each other, so continue their argument by pulling books from the shelf and pointing to the titles. Since Émile stubbornly refuses her request for a child, Angéla finally decides to accept Alfred's plea and sleeps with him. This proves that she will do what she must to have a child. She and Émile finally make up, so he has a chance to become the father. The two have sex, then engage in a bit of wordplay that gives the film its title: an exasperated Émile says "Angéla, tu es infâme" ("Angela, you are horrid"), and she retorts, "Non, je suis une femme" ("No, I am a woman")

Hungarian Summary:

A sztriptíztáncosnő, Angela fejébe veszi, hogy gyereket szül, bár az ötletért barátja, Emile nem igazán lelkesedik. Konfliktusok sorozata következik. Angela végül nem zavartatja magát, s mivel Émile nem akarja az apaságot vállalni, egy közös ismerősük, Alfred segíti ki őket paradox helyzetükből.

French Summary:

Angela veut un enfant dans les 24 heures. Émile, son compagnon, n'est pas si pressé. Pour arriver à ses fins, elle menace Émile de faire un enfant avec Alfred, un ami d'Émile qui est amoureux d'elle.
