Synopsis
The simplest plot imaginable — “callous rich woman is shipwrecked on an island with a man who is a firebrand communist” — takes on multiple layers of sexual and political meaning in Lina Wertmüller’s controversial and sensational social fable, now newly restored. With Wertmüller’s muse Giancarlo Giannini (naturally) and the wonderful Mariangela Melato.
