The wild bunch, bold cinematic rebels and adventurous films
ITALY | 78 minutes | 2016
Everything you always wanted to know about pornography. The good one! “We were fighting pornography with pornography.” Bernardo Bertolucci“… shows in a playful and pertinent way how porn can become a strategic weapon …” Rotterdam Film FestivalThe next revolution will be sexual or will not be. A look back to Italy in the 1970s, where pornography was synonymous with rebellion, the fulcrum of a fierce struggle for freedom from puritanism and prudery. From directors of both sexes to stars like Cicciolina, from feminists and philosophers to critics and art historians, this euphoric, downright orgasmic documentary politicizes us, at a time when sex has been trivialized and pornography has lost all meaning.
