In reference to the living room scene, Sandra Sammartino said,"No one has ever spoken to me brutally saying 'this is a touching scene, you are facing a pedophile, it will be hard'! That's why I had no apprehension, some embarrassment to be sure but for me it was all just a game !! I had a lot of fun on the set and I got along very well with Michel, I was able to distinguish between him and Jean Pierre... But I remember thinking to myself, 'This Jean Pierre is really stupid, why he does that ? !' Because in my young mind this kind of character did not exist in reality. Surely I would have had more trouble if I had been old enough to understand what I was shooting."[2]
