* AnAesop: At the end in regards to the struggles of French students unable to pay for their education.



* UnproblematicProstitution: Highly averted. Laura [[spoiler:gets raped, gets stiffed multiple times on her fee, and many of the clients force her into more than she's offering]]. That's not even including how [[spoiler:it drives away Manu, the man she loves]].

!This movie exhibits the following tropes:
----
* AutoErotica: Laura's second client can't afford a hotel room.
* BondageIsBad: The primary "bad customer" that Laura keeps getting involved in is Joe. On their second meeting, he [[spoiler:ties her up and assaults her with a sex toy]]. On the fourth, [[spoiler:it's heavily implied that she's strapped to a St. Andrew's cross and shared with two of Joe's friends]].
* FanDisservice: Laura gets naked multiple times in the film, and has sex during several of the scenes, but the sex scenes with clients are filmed without any music, emphasizing how unsexy the whole situation is.
* MadonnaWhoreComplex: Laura tries to divide herself into the two categories. She's not the whore when she's not having sex for money.
* PlatonicProstitution: Never. Even Joe, who likes to talk, is only doing it to warm up.
* StarvingStudent: Early in the movie, Laura faints in class due to not having eaten properly.
* UnproblematicProstitution: Highly averted. Laura [[spoiler:gets raped, gets stiffed multiple times on her fee, and many of the clients force her into more than she's offering]]. That's not even including how [[spoiler:it drives away Manu, the man she loves]].
