*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

It may be true that nobody really watches these Brigitte Lahaie classics for the plot, but "Ondées Brûlantes" (aka Burning Showers) brings new meaning to the term minimalism. Directed by Jack Régis and Bernard Lapeyre, it is obvious that one of them got hold of a yacht for a weekend, invited some regulars from the French porno scene and started to film some footage with the intend of building some kind of story around it at a later date. When this plan fell apart, director # 2 stepped in to film a framework story involving a quartet of different adult film stars. in the end result, neither story amounts to much other than some extended foursomes.

The first couple we meet are played by André Miller and France Lomay. He invites her home for the proverbial roll in the hay, after which (and right on cue) Guy Royer calls to invite them to a screening of some rushes he's been working on. As Guy hangs up the phone he returns his attention to his daily routine: being pleasured by his assistant Brigitte Lahaie and returning the favor.At two O'clock the foursome heads into the screening room to watch highlights from 'Jouir à Fond de Sexe'. This mainly consists of some familiar faces (most of whom uncredited) having sex on the deck of a yacht, then setting foot on dry land for some fun on the rocks before playing slightly perverted pirate games on the boat again.

In the screening room, André & France are easily aroused and in turn, also turn on Guy & Brigitte. Before long, the projectionist is spinning celluloid for nothing, as nobody is watching the film anymore. And I daresay the same thing goes for most of the viewers, as the film within a film sequences are easily the least interesting part of this very simplistic feature. Oh and as for the English title, there isn't a shower in sight, let alone one that's on fire.
