CGiii Comment

In Britain, Jarman did Sebastiane...in France, Vallois did this...as comparison pieces, they are worlds apart.

In Britain, for the censors to pass male frontal nudity...it had to be artful.

In France...well...

Fisting?!? Artful?!?

Art-house gone too far.


Trailer...

The(ir) Blurb...

While Philipe waits for Johan to come out of jail he starts recreating several moments of their relationship with the help of several friends during the summer of 1975.
