An AMAZING film by Walerian Borowcyzk. While La Bete (The Beast) would be my first recommendation for a Borowczyk (pronounced Bore-ov-check) virgin, this is not far behind. Broken into 4 stories, starting with Modern day France and spiraling down to the 15th century this film explores sexuality on a very intimate and at times uncomfortable level. We are shown two stories which involve incest, 1 that shows sex with vegetables, and another that is just out of this world. Some might consider it softcore pornography with A LOT of nudity, others art house cinema, I happen to consider it the latter. This is a powerful film, with straight forward messages as seen through blatant symbolism and BEAUTIFUL photography. We are shown humans natural and animalistic sexual side and in some cases (the last two segments) mixed with the lust for power.
Unfortunately no Trailer was found
