Plot

Serge Fabergé (Gainsbourg) is a 40-year-old director who leaves his pregnant wife (Parisy) to attend an advertising award festival in Venice. There he meets Evelyne (Birkin), a young British woman, and initiates an affair. Evelyne eventually leaves him for another man.

Production

Grimblat initially wanted American actress Marisa Berenson to play the role of Evelyne, but decided on a British actress instead.[3]

The filming of Slogan was temporary delayed due to the 1968 riots in France.[4]
