RomanceComedyDrama

The film consists of a series of tightly interlinked vignettes, the most sustained of which details the story of a man and a woman who are passionately in love. Their attempts to consummate their passion are constantly thwarted, by their families, by the Church and bourgeois society in general.

VIBE

A wild, anarchic dreamscape where desire clashes with societal repression. Expect shocking imagery, biting satire, and a relentless, surreal energy that challenges conventions. It's a visually arresting, often disturbing, but ultimately exhilarating cinematic fever dream.
